Abstract

A vehicular ad hoc network (VANET) basically consists of a group of vehicles that communicate with each other through a wireless transmission and requires no pre-existing management infrastructure. This communication, as the main objective, streamlining traffic for drivers. This exchange of information is not always reliable because of several constraints such as the existence of malicious users aimed falsifying information to serve their own interests. In this paper, we will simulate the Black Hole attack in a VANET environment with a generated real world mobility model using MOVE Tool and SUMO and analyse the performance of this communication under this attack. And then we propose a clustering algorithm to detect and react against the black hole attacker node.
