This method, in addition to meeting CFF criteria, the same code word length, number of more nodes, more tolerance malicious nodes, less computational complexity and memory size, can also reduce the processing power. The main idea of this method, the use of non-linear codes that produced using cyclic codes on Z4 for key predistribution in mobile ad hoc networks. In proposed scheme, the resulting codeword for each node, a string of binary presence or absence of the key can specify the location of that, Furthermore that the location of “1”, the number specified key is available. These codes in the same conditions (length and size) with a linear codes have a minimum distance.}, }
