Study and Performance Evaluation of AODV Protocols under Black Hole Attack in MANET
A mobile ad hoc network is a temporary network set up by wireless mobile computers moving arbitrary in the places that have no network infrastructure. Since the nodes communicate with each other, they cooperate by forwarding data packets to other nodes in the network. Thus the nodes find a path to the destination node using routing protocols. However, due to security vulnerabilities of the routing protocols, mobile ad hoc networks are unprotected to attacks of the malicious nodes.
