Abstract:

 Wireless mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) are an upcomingtechnology in the field of mobile computing. These networksexpresssevere security problems due to their distinctiveuniqueness such as mobility, dynamic topology and lack of centralinfrastructure support. To executethis system MANET and to construct it practical, we incorporate the idea of Shamir's secret sharing scheme. This system proposes key management and security concerns in mobile ad hoc networks.We present the key management scheme as a combination of Identity-Based, Unique Transmission’s time Factor and Threshold Cryptography for ad hoc networks. It is a Certificateless solution which eliminates the need for public key distribution and certificates in public key management schemes.We also suggest a distributed key management approach by using the recently developed ideas of certificate less public key cryptography which is combined with Identity Based and threshold secret sharing schemes. Without any assumption of prefixed trust relationship between nodes, the ad hoc network works in a self-organizing way to provide the key generation and key management services using threshold secret sharing schemes, which effectively solves the problem of single point of failure.

Keywords:

MANETs, key management and security, Unique Transmission’s time Factor and Threshold Cryptography for ad hoc networks.
