Detection of Node Clone and Sybil Attack Based on CI Approach

Abstract

A Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is an interconnected system of a large set of physically small, low cost, low power sensors that provide ubiquitous sensing and computing capabilities. The sensors have the ability to sense the environment in various modalities, process the information, and disseminate data wirelessly. Therefore, if the ability of the WSNs is suitably harnessed, it is envisioned that the WSN can reduce or eliminate the need for human involvement in information gathering in broad civilian or military applications such as national security, health care, environment protection, energy preservation, food safety, traffic management (vehicular ad hoc networking) and so on.
