WORMHOLE DETECTION METHODS IN MANET

Ankita Gupta, Sanjay Prakash Ranga · 2012

Wormhole Attack is one of the most severe attacks on routing protocols in which two or more malicious nodes receive packets at one point of the network and transmit them to another location by a wired or wireless tunnel. This attack so powerful that the detection of it is difficult. This attack can form a serious threat in wireless networks, especially against many wireless ad-hoc networks and location-based wireless security systems. There are several wormhole detection methods in the wireless ad-hoc networks which some of them are reviewed in this paper. Finally, a qualitative comparison among all methods is provided.
