Secure Routing Protocol with Malicious Nodes Detection for Ad hoc Networks

An Ad Hoc network is a highly dynamic routing network cooperated by a set of wireless mobile nodes without any assistance of centralized access point. ARIADNE is a well-known secure on-demand ad hoc network routing protocol. After finishing the Route Discovery protocol, it just finds one route for the source and the destination nodes. However, the intermediate nodes can't use that route to transmitting data for themselves. For reducing the Route Discovery broadcast packets and reusing the valid route for increasing the packet delivery ratio, authors present a new secure on-demand routing protocol based on ARIADNE, called I-ARIADNE.
