| Summary: | Mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) is collection of wireless nodes that operates without using a centralized network infrastructure such as a base station. Since the wireless range is limited, the nodes mutually cooperate with their neighbors in order to extend the overall communication range of the network for forwarding packets. Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV) is one of the commonly used protocols in ad-hoc networks. AODV is a dynamic routing protocol that is able to find the shortest path from a source node to a destination node in MANET based on hop count. However, due to the nature of MANET, it is very easy to introduce malicious nodes in MANET. These malicious nodes may try to compromise the routing protocol functionality and make MANET vulnerable to security attacks which lead to unreliable routing. Therefore, security has become a primary concern in providing protected communication among nodes in MANET. In this study, we propose a Reliable Dynamic Trust-based Routing (RDTR) protocol by integrating a trust mechanism with a shortest path routing algorithm for establishing and maintaining trustworthy routes in MANET. © Asian Network for Scientific Information. |
