Abstract

Most of the existing trust-based routing schemes requires the support of promiscuous mode of operation and gathers large number of recommendations from the neighbors for trust derivation. In this paper, we propose a new Two-way Acknowledgement-based Trust framework with individual (2-ACKT-I) acknowledgements which calculates the direct trust using a link layer acknowledgement and a two-hop acknowledgement from a downstream neighbor. The simulation results demonstrate that 2-ACKT-I scheme significantly outperforms the conventional multihop routing schemes and promiscuous mode-based trust scheme in terms of packet delivery ratio and network lifetime.
