Summary:碩士 === 國立中正大學 === 資訊管理所 === 95 === Security is one of the important issues in mobile Ad-Hoc network due to its inherent characteristics of self-organized, infrastructure -less architecture and open medium. However, for trust-building, each node sometimes needs to collect or store many trust values of other nodes or through recommendations. And broadcast storm is also the main problem in wireless mobile ad-hoc network. We propose a trust evaluation method based on clustering and Information Entropy and utilize an authentication service to enhance the reliability of packet transmission. In such way, an evaluation of unfamiliar node’s trust can be done efficiently and accurately. Thus, one node can determine whether the other nodes it communicates should be trusted or not, and can also transmit through a safely routing path
