Cross layer reputation mechanism based secure routing protocol for WMNs

Wireless mesh networks are faced with various security threats due to their special infrastructure and communication mode, where the internal attacks aiming at routing security and user privacy security are one of the most challenging issues. In this paper a novel cross layer reputation mechanism is first proposed to identify and isolate the internal malicious nodes. Then, a privacy-aware secure routing protocol CR-HWMP based on the proposed reputation mechanism is proposed. Performance analysis and simulation results show that CR-HWMP can effectively implement the privacy preserving and defend against the internal attacks such as black hole and gray hole, and improve the reliability, robustness and security of the wireless mesh networks efficiently.
