Abstract

In today’s era, thinking of Vehicular Ad-hoc Network as a midrib for the leaf of academic, social, corporate, and economic activities will not be erroneous. To avoid any panic situations like road accidents, heavy traffic jams, etc., the timely availability of correct information is obligatory. The presence of malicious nodes within the network will ruin the dream of establishing a safe, secure, and accident-free vehicular network. This objective can be fulfilled only when malicious nodes within the network are identified correctly, and respective actions are taken at the right time. Therefore, there is a great requirement for efficient and intelligent misbehavior detection techniques to deal with such situations. Vehicular networks are very prone to numerous attacks, such as Sybil attacks, unauthorized access, etc. due to their dynamic nature. The main goal of this study is to discuss and bundle various available misbehavior detection schemes and respective solutions to cope with harmful attackers in the network. We have categorized different misbehavior detections on the criteria of architecture, approach, node-centric, and data-centric. The subcategorization is also given within the paper. One section of this paper focuses on the role of machine learning techniques in misbehavior detection as an emerging foot strap for further enhancement. A comparative analysis of various misbehavior detection schemes is also conducted based on performance measures like accuracy, False Positive Rate, Recall, Precision and F-measurement. Finally, the paper concluded by discussing open issues and various research challenges associated with misbehavior detection in the Vehicular Ad-hoc Network.
