In view of the security weakness in resisting the active attacks by malicious nodes in mobile ad hoc networks,the trust metric is introduced to defend those attacks by loading a trust model on the previously proposed Distance-Based LAR.The improved Secure Trust-based Location-Aided Routing algorithm utilizes direct trust and recommendation trust to prevent malicious nodes with low trust values from joining the forwarding.Simulation results reveal that ST-LAR can resist attacks by malicious nodes effectively;furthermore,it also achieves better performance than DBLAR in terms of average end-to-end delay,packet delivery success ratio and throughput.
