Abstract

Wireless ad hoc networks become more and more popular and significant in many fields. However, the deployment scenarios, the functionality requirements, and the limited capabilities of these types of networks make them vulnerable to a large group of attacks, such as blackhole attacks. In this paper, we proposed a scheme to prevent blackhole attacks in wireless ad hoc networks. Our scheme consists of three mechanisms which are trust management mechanism, detection mechanism and location mechanism. The performance simulation analysis confirms the availability and efficiency of our scheme.
