Abstract

Mobile ad-hoc networks (MANET) are vulnerable to many types of attacks. Monitoring MANET is then essential to ensure high level performance. Many challenges arise in the MANET self-monitoring. Namely, the limited storage and energy resources of mobile nodes, the high topological dynamism and the unpredictable behaviors, etc. In this paper we propose a new self monitoring scheme that comprises a new multi criteria monitors’ election method while integrating a new trust based cooperation technique. This scheme does, not only, elect the trustworthy monitors having a large capacity, but it also can guarantee the continuous participants’ control in order to measure their sincerity. We validate our approach through several simulations. The experimental results indicate that the proposed scheme outperforms the cluster-based and CDS-based architectures in terms of the number of exchanged messages, excluded regular monitors and that of detected irregular monitors.
