Contents • Problem overview • Contributions • Simulation results • Conclusion and Future work

Problem overview • Multimedia streaming in MANETs • Confidentiality of video data – Cryptography • Overhead caused by cryptography affects streaming performance • Possibilities of selective encryption [1-3], adaptive security [4,5], and properties of multimedia services

Evaluation: Cumulative packet scheduling delay Indices (These results are obtained from our earlier work [6])

Key contributions: Adaptive mechanisms 1. Fixed frame rate and adaptive crypto scheme 2. Optional inter coded frame encryption 3. Optional inter coded frame transmission 4. Frame rate adaptation • Crypto scheme:

1. Fixed frame rate and adaptive crypto scheme • Each station maintains a pre-populated cryptography performance profile (crypto scheme: encryption / decryption throughput) • Receiver provides periodic feedback (decryption throughput, packet rate, transmission delay) • Crypto Threshold, ( indicates the maximum time allowed for a video data unit (slice, frame or a GOP) to spend in cryptography operations) • Sender calculates crypto delay, • If is not satisfied, cypto scheme is changed to meet

Example: Cryptography performance profile

1. Fixed frame rate and adaptive crypto scheme (continued) Two ECDH based rekeying techniques: 1. Only the source renews its key – requires one way communications 2. Both parties renew their keys – requires two way communications

2. Optional inter coded frame encryption Crypto scheme and frame rate are fixed. Encrypting frames containing inter coded macroblocks (e.g., P and B-frames) are optional.

3. Optional inter coded frame transmission • Crypto scheme is fixed and all the transmitted video data must be encrypted. • It is optional to encrypt and transmit video frames containing inter coded macroblocks (e.g., P and B-frames).

4. Frame rate adaptation we replace TP dec in PKT fb by cumulative decryption time and considers cumulative encryption time as well and

Conclusion

Future work • We have only considered H.264/AVC and unicasting. The concept can be extended for H. 264/SVC and 3D/Stereoscopic video coding and multicasting. • An algorithm to determine the value of Crypto Threshold based on network and application parameters. • Using Multi Criteria Decision Making approach (e.g., AHP) to realize multidimensional (e.g., adapting security and QoS parameters simultaneously) adaptation decisions.
