     In this paper proposed the Quantifying anonymity using conditional entropy of the routes given the adversary’s observation, the problem of optimizing anonymity is posed as a two-player zero-sum game between the network designer and the adversary. Game theory applied to study the optimal performance tradeoffs and equilibrium strategies. Using independent schedule however, requires dummy transmissions by the relays. The results are applied to study the relationships between anonymity, the fraction of monitored relays and the fraction of hidden relays in large networks.
