doi:10.3969/j.issn.1006-2475.2015.10.022

Abstract

Abstract: To prevent the timing attacks of spatio-temporal in wireless sensor networks, a new privacy preservation mechanism based on MIX idea is proposed. The protection strategies corresponding to three different spatio-temporal relations existed in data transmission are proposed. The realization principle and data processing flow of the protection mechanism are described in detail, thus it provides a new idea for the protection of spatio-temporal privacy in WSN.

Key words: WSN, spatio-temporal privacy, privacy preservation technology
