Summary: | In opportunistic networks,users can take the advantage of parallel opportunistic contacts with other mobile users and find the appropriate helpers to forward the messages or share the contents.Most of the existing profile-matching protocols were designed on the basis of homomorphic cryptosystem and were not quite efficient in encryption and decryption.Three efficient and privacy-preserving profile matching protocols were proposed to deal with different privacy requirements in opportunistic networks,which do not use any homomorphic encryption.The proposed protocols were proved to be privacy-preserving and correct.The performances of the protocols are thoroughly analyzed and evaluated via real smartphone experiments,and the results show that the proposed protocols can decrease encryption and decryption time by at least an order of magnitude than the Paillier cryptosystem based protocol. |
