ENERGY EFFICIENT IMPROVEMENT GEOCAST FORWARDING IN MANET BASED ON A CLUSTERED STRUCTURE

Abstract

Mobile sinks (MSs) are very important in many wireless sensor network (WSN) applications for efficient data gathering, restricted sensor reprogramming, and for characteristic and revoking compromised sensors. This paper presents a secure and energy-efficient geocast forwarding for MANET based on a hierarchical clustered structure with reduction of packet dropping from the base station (BS) and access Point (AP) all nodes placed in one or more geocast regions. Our protocol is composed of two major parts which are protects from attackers and allow over all energy savings. First of all the hierarchical formation based on cliques and a concept of data aggregation allows us to build a robust, fast and secure foundation for routing of information. Next geocast diffusion itself provides data forwarding and reduced a research phase in the network that is a step of sending data(s). Our protocol performs better in terms of less broadcast rounds overhead. For security a three-tier general framework is used, that permit utilize of any pair wise key pre distribution plan as its indispensable component. The innovative framework requires two disconnect key pools, solitary for to access the network, and one for pair wise key establishment between the sensors. To decrease the compensation caused by reproduction attacks we encompass strengthened the authentication device between the sensor nodes and the stationary access node (AP) in the planned framework. Through in depth analysis, we show that our security framework has top network flexibility to a mobile sink reproduction attack as compared to the two-tier general frame work. The analysis is done using network simulator 2 (NS2) and it is a packet level simulator with trace level analysis.
