A Trust Model for Fault Detection in Hierarchical WSN
Wireless sensor networks are prone to failures and malicious attacks. A compromised node itself could report inaccurate or even forged data. So trust management is becoming a new driving force to solve challenges to WSN. In this paper, we propose a comprehensive trust model for hierarchical WSN. In this model, each node maintains a trust value according to its experience trust and social trust. Unlike previous efforts, our current design focuses on not only the node itself but also its relation with its neighbors. Results indicate the great advantage of our model to handle fault and abnormality
