多源网络编码签名

网络编码可以提高系统的吞吐量,增强系统的健壮性,节省无线网络资源。然而,基于网络编码的系统非常容易遭受污染攻击。已存在的应对污染攻击的方案主要是使用同态签名,并且这些方案几乎都是针对单源网络编码系统的。在本文中,我们提出了一个新的适用于多源网络编码的应对污染攻击的签名方案。该方案使用了环签名和同态哈希函数,每个源节点为它发送的每条消息都生成一个环签名。来自不同源的消息可以在中间结点进行组合。转发者不需要知道源结点的私钥就可以为输出的编码消息生成环签名。验证者无需解码就可以检测出污染消息。该方案是为多源网络编码特别设计的,与文件和分组大小无关。

Signatures for Multi-source Network Coding

Network coding can be used to offer benefits in terms of throughput, robustness and wireless resources. However, network coding systems are very vulnerable to pollution attacks. Almost all existing schemes against pollution attacks mainly adopt homomorphic signatures, as far as we know, which are only suitable for the single source network coding scenarios. In this paper, we propose a novel signature scheme for multi-source network coding to prevent pollution attacks. Our signature scheme makes use of the r...
