Detection of misbehaving and selfish node in Optimized Link State Routing (OLSR) in mobile ADHOC network
Mansi Kharya, Neeraj Kumar Shukla · International Journal of Management, IT, and Engineering · 2014
Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANET) is the self organizing collection of mobile nodes. The Optimized Link State Routing (OLSR) protocol was designed to improve scalability of Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks (MANETs). OLSR protocol implements Multipoint Relay (MPR) nodes as a flooding mechanism for distributing control information. Nevertheless, OLSR was designed without security measures. There-fore, a misbehaving node can affect the topology map acquisition process by interrupting the flooding of control information or disturbing the MPR selection process.
