Abstract

Wormhole attacks, as a devastating type of threats in wireless mesh networks, have received much attention in recent years. This paper proposes a type of wormhole attack model and its corresponding detection scheme. In this scheme, the combination of a number of techniques, such as distributed voting, watch-nodes-based detection and identity-based cryptosystem are used. The simulation results and qualitative analysis demonstrate the performance and cost of the proposed scheme are more advantageous over the some of the previous schemes.
