Abstract
Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is a collection of wireless nodes without any centralized administration thereby forming an ad-hoc wireless network. MANET has limited battery power, memory, bandwidth, etc. In order to save these resources some nodes stop cooperating in the routing function. These nodes, known as malicious nodes refuse to forward data packets or drop them, thereby degrading the performance of the network. To detect such nodes, an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is used. Several existing such systems includes Watchdog, Nuggets-based System, TWO-ACK system, etc. However, they fail to detect these nodes in the presences of ambiguous collisions, receiver collisions, limited transmission power, false misbehaviour, and partial dropping. In this paper, a new method is proposed to overcome all the previously specified limitations. The proposed system works under two phases: Detection and Broadcast phase. The detection mode finds out the malicious nodes in the network and determines the truthfulness of the misbehaviour report generated and the broadcast mode distributes the information about malicious nodes throughout the network.
