Reliability of MANET under the Influence of Black Hole Attack in Adhoc on Demand Distance Vector Routing Protocol

摘要

Enormous usage of Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) on regular basis in communication has generated keen interests towards research on reliability and security characteristics of MANET in recent times. Tremendous amount of research work on security in MANET are accessible in the literature currently. However, minimal amount of research on reliability analysis of MANET under security attack is available in the literature. The reliability analysis of MANET under black hole attack running Ad hoc on demand distance vector (AODV) routing protocol is accorded in this paper. The influence of black hole attack on the reliability of MANET is analyzed using ns-2.35 simulation software. It is revealed from the simulation results that the reliability of MANET under single black hole attack is higher than the reliability of MANET under multiple black hole attack in AODV routing protocol.
