The anonymity mechanism is introduced into the authentication process, which can thwart the traffic analysis attacks, and protect the privacy of nodes. In addition, by analyzing and comparing the anti-attack performance and the resource overhead of the authentication scheme, the results show that the proposed scheme can provide good authentication and also have a lower overhead at the cost of computation, storage and communication. %U https://journal.bupt.edu.cn/EN/10.13190/j.jbupt.2017-193
