Privacy-preserving routing is crucial for some ad hoc networks that require stronger privacy protection. A number of schemes have been proposed to protect privacy in ad hoc networks. However, none of these schemes offer complete unlinkability or unobservability property since data packets and control packets are still linkable and distinguishable in these schemes. In this paper, we define stronger privacy requirements regarding privacy-preserving routing in mobile ad hoc networks. Then we propose AODV to offer complete unlinkability and content unobservability effectively for all types of packets. AODV is efficient as it uses a novel combination of group signature and ID-based encryption for route discovery. Security analysis demonstrates that AODV can well protect user privacy against both inside and outside attackers. We implement AODV on ns2,thus the proposed system is to detect and prevent the wormhole attacks in MANET using path tracing.
