Safe Routing Approach by Identifying and Subsequently Eliminating the Attacks in MANET
Wireless networks that are decentralized and communicate without using
existing infrastructure are known as mobile ad-hoc networks. The most common
sorts of threats and attacks can affect MANETs. Therefore, it is advised to
utilize intrusion detection, which controls the system to detect additional
security issues. Monitoring is essential to avoid attacks and provide extra
protection against unauthorized access. Although the current solutions have
been designed to defeat the attack nodes, they still require additional
hardware, have considerable delivery delays, do not offer high throughput or
packet delivery ratios, or do not do so without using more energy. The
capability of a mobile node to forward packets, which is dependent on the
platform's life quality, may be impacted by the absence of the network node
power source. We developed the Safe Routing Approach (SRA), which uses
behaviour analysis to track and monitor attackers who discard packets during
the route discovery process. The attacking node recognition system is made for
irregular routing node detection to protect the controller network's usual
properties from becoming recognized as an attack node. The suggested method
examines the nearby attack nodes and conceals the trusted node in the routing
pathway. The path is instantly assigned after the initial discovery of trust
nodes based on each node's strength value. It extends the network's life span
and reduces packet loss. In terms of Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), energy
consumption, network performance, and detection of attack nodes, the suggested
approach is contrasted with AIS, ZIDS, and Improved AODV. The findings
demonstrate that the recommended strategy performs superior in terms of PDR,
residual energy, and network throughput
A Survey and Future Directions on Clustering: From WSNs to IoT and Modern Networking Paradigms
Many Internet of Things (IoT) networks are created as an overlay over traditional ad-hoc networks such as Zigbee. Moreover, IoT networks can resemble ad-hoc networks over networks that support device-to-device (D2D) communication, e.g., D2D-enabled cellular networks and WiFi-Direct. In these ad-hoc types of IoT networks, efficient topology management is a crucial requirement, and in particular in massive scale deployments. Traditionally, clustering has been recognized as a common approach for topology management in ad-hoc networks, e.g., in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Topology management in WSNs and ad-hoc IoT networks has many design commonalities as both need to transfer data to the destination hop by hop. Thus, WSN clustering techniques can presumably be applied for topology management in ad-hoc IoT networks. This requires a comprehensive study on WSN clustering techniques and investigating their applicability to ad-hoc IoT networks. In this article, we conduct a survey of this field based on the objectives for clustering, such as reducing energy consumption and load balancing, as well as the network properties relevant for efficient clustering in IoT, such as network heterogeneity and mobility. Beyond that, we investigate the advantages and challenges of clustering when IoT is integrated with modern computing and communication technologies such as Blockchain, Fog/Edge computing, and 5G. This survey provides useful insights into research on IoT clustering, allows broader understanding of its design challenges for IoT networks, and sheds light on its future applications in modern technologies integrated with IoT.acceptedVersio
Investigating Open Issues in Swarm Intelligence for Mitigating Security Threats in MANET
The area of Mobile Adhoc Network (MANET) has being a demanded topic of research for more than a decade because of its attractive communication features associated with various issues. This paper primarily discusses on the security issues, which has been still unsolved after abundant research work. The paper basically stresses on the potential features of Swarm Intelligence (SI) and its associated techniques to mitigate the security issues. Majority of the previous researches based on SI has used Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) or Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) extensively. Elaborated discussion on SI with respect to trust management, authentication, and attack models are made with support of some of the recent studies done in same area. The paper finally concludes by discussing the open issues and problem identification of the review
Airborne Directional Networking: Topology Control Protocol Design
This research identifies and evaluates the impact of several architectural design choices in relation to airborne networking in contested environments related to autonomous topology control. Using simulation, we evaluate topology reconfiguration effectiveness using classical performance metrics for different point-to-point communication architectures. Our attention is focused on the design choices which have the greatest impact on reliability, scalability, and performance. In this work, we discuss the impact of several practical considerations of airborne networking in contested environments related to autonomous topology control modeling. Using simulation, we derive multiple classical performance metrics to evaluate topology reconfiguration effectiveness for different point-to-point communication architecture attributes for the purpose of qualifying protocol design elements
Mobile Ad hoc Networking: Imperatives and Challenges
Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) represent complex distributed systems that comprise wireless mobile nodes that can freely and dynamically self-organize into arbitrary and temporary, "ad-hoc" network topologies, allowing people and devices to seamlessly internetwork in areas with no pre-existing communication infrastructure, e.g., disaster recovery environments. Ad hoc networking concept is not a new one, having been around in various forms for over 20 years. Traditionally, tactical networks have been the only communication networking application that followed the ad hoc paradigm. Recently, the introduction of new technologies such as the Bluetooth, IEEE 802.11 and Hyperlan are helping enable eventual commercial MANET deployments outside the military domain. These recent evolutions have been generating a renewed and growing interest in the research and development of MANET. This paper attempts to provide a comprehensive overview of this dynamic field. It first explains the important role that mobile ad hoc networks play in the evolution of future wireless technologies. Then, it reviews the latest research activities in these areas, including a summary of MANET\u27s characteristics, capabilities, applications, and design constraints. The paper concludes by presenting a set of challenges and problems requiring further research in the future
