Automated Method of Clone Nodes Detection in Wireless Sensor Networks

A computer network is a collection of computers and other hardware components interconnected by communication channels that allow sharing of resources and information. Wireless sensor network refers to a group of spatially dispersed and dedicated sensors for monitoring and recording the physical conditions of the environment and organizing the collected data at a central location. In this paper, a new automated algorithms for detecting clone nodes in sensor networks has been proposed. One of the serious physical attacks faced by the wireless sensor network is node clone attack.
