    Multiple-path source routing protocols allow a data source node to distribute the total traffic among available paths. In this article, we consider the problem of jammingaware source routing in which the source node performs traffic allocation based on empirical jamming statistics at individual network nodes. We formulate this traffic allocation as a lossy network flow optimization problem using portfolio selection theory from financial statistics. We show that in multi-source networks, this centralized optimization problem can be solved using a distributed algorithm based on decomposition in network utility maximization (NUM). We demonstrate the network2019;s ability to estimate the impact of jamming and incorporate these estimates into the traffic allocation problem. Finally, we simulate the achievable throughput using our proposed traffic allocation method in several scenarios

    In Wireless 802.11 networks, Multiple-path source routing allows data source node to distribute the total traffic among the possible available paths. However, in this case jamming effects were not considered. Recent work has presented jamming mitigation scheme, anti-jamming Reinforcement System on 802.11 networks by assessing physical-layer functions such as rate adaptation and power control. Rate adaptation algorithms significantly degrade network performance. Appropriate tuning of carrier sensing threshold allows transmitter to send packets even on jam that enable receiver to capture desired signal. Efficient schedules need to be investigated for redundant transmission to perform well in presence of jammer. In this paper, the proposal in our work presents an Efficient Time and Transmission Schedule Scheme for wireless 802.11 networks in presence of jamming that guarantee low waiting time and low staleness of data. Schedules are optimal even jamming signal has energy limitations. Each packet is encoded by an errorcorrecting code (Reed-Solomon). Reed solomon code allow schedule to minimize waiting time of the clients and staleness of the received data. Jammers have restrictions on length of jamming pulses and length of intervals between subsequent jamming pulses

    Underwater sensor networks (UWSNs) are vulnerable to jamming attacks. Especially, reactive jamming which emerged as a greatest security threat to UWSNs. Reactive jammer are difficult to be removed, defended and identified. Since reactive jammer can control and regulate (i.e., the duration of the jam signal) the probability of jamming for maintaining high vulnerability with low detection probability. The existing model are generally designed considering terrestrial wireless sensor networks (TWSNs). Further, these models are limited in their ability to detect jamming correctly, distinguish between the corrupted and uncorrupted parts of a packet, and be adaptive with the dynamic environment. Cooperative jamming model has presented in recent times to utilize resource efficiently. However, very limited work is carried out using cooperative jamming detection. For overcoming research challenges, this work present Maximize Resource Utilization based Channel Access (MRUCA). The MRUCA uses cross layer design for mitigating reactive jammer (i.e., MRUCA jointly optimizes the cooperative hopping probabilities and channel accessibility probabilities of authenticated sensor device). Along with channel, load capacity of authenticated sensor device is estimated to utilize (maximize) resource efficiently. Experiment outcome shows the proposed MRUCA model attain superior performance than state-of-art model in terms of packet transmission, BER and Detection rate

    AN ENERGY EFFICIENT DEACTIVATION TECHNIQUE FOR REACTIVE JAMMERS IN WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS

    In recent days, reactive jamming attack has emerged as a great security threat to wireless sensor network [WSN]. Several strategies are developed to identify the trigger nodes, whose legitimate transmission activates any reactive jammer. After identifying the trigger node, the node will be shut down to deactivate the jammer and its routing information is deleted from the routing table, then the node can’t be used again in the network. Since the node can’t be used again in the network it is one of the major drawbacks. Hence to overcome the problem, In this paper we propose a novel approach, where the identified trigger nodes are put in to the scanning mode, so that we can reuse the trigger nodes, after deactivating the jammer node in the network
