Securing AODV Routing Protocol in design of Mobile Ad-hoc Networks. Using NS2 Network Simulator

      Аннотация: Routing is an important function in MANETs. Performance of various Proactive, Reactive and Hybride Routing Protocol have been studied, analyzed and evaluated through the simulations in Network Simulator-2. Early work in routing mainly focussed on providing efficient mechanisms for finding paths in dynamic networks. Security issues were not taken into consideration. Interestingly, designing adequate security schemes for these innovative networks is very challenging. The objective of writing this book are (i) To make the readers aware of the fundamentals of Mobile Ad hoc Networks and its working (ii) To understand the issues and challenges of deployment and maintenance of MANETs (iii) Study, analysed and evaluate performance of proactive, reactive and hybrid routing protocol through the simulations in Network Simulator-2 (iv) Provide a broad and comprehensive overview of the research that has been done to secure AODV routing protocol in design of MANETs and (v) Propose a novel approach to secure AODV routing protocol from insider attacks. This book will be very much useful for Ph.D, Research Scholar and Graduate Students who wish to carry out their research in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks.
