Provisioning Protected Resource Sharing in Multi-Hop Wireless Networks.
E-yong Kim, Hwangnam Kim, Kunsoo Park · 2006
We propose a protection framework for resource sharing to promote cooperation among nodes in multi-hop wireless networks. In the resource sharing protocol, a node claims credits when it relays others' packets. A node also issues rewards to the node which relays its packets. Rewards are used to validate the correctness of credits. In order to protect credits and rewards, we devise a secure registry scheme that supports the timed test of credit validation, and then prove that the scheme is not susceptible to various security attacks.
