    Abstract

    In Location-Based Services (Lbss), Users Send Location-Based Queries To Lbs Servers Along With Their Exact Locations, But The Location Information Of The Users Can Be Misused By Adversaries. In This Regard, There Must Be A Mechanism Which Can Deal With The Privacy Protection Of The Users. In This Paper, We Propose A Cloaking Method Considering Both K-Anonymity And L-Diversity. Our Cloaking Method Creates A Minimum Cloaking Region By Finding L Number Of Buildings (L-Diversity) And Then Finds K Number Of Users (Kanonymity). To Support It, We Use R*-Tree Based Index Structures As Well As Efficient Filtering Techniques To Generate A Minimum Cloaking Region. Finally, We Show From Our Performance Analysis That Our Cloaking Method Outperforms The Existing Grid-Based Cloaking Method In Terms Of The Size Of Cloaking Regions And Cloaking Region Creation Time.
