Integration of modified Security Service Vector to the MANET

Abstract

A mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) isinfrastructure-less, self-organized networks that eitheroperate autonomously or as an extension to the wirednetworking infrastructure. MANET is expected tosupport new QoS and security-based applications andnew services. Nowadays, the QoS and security are veryimportant areas of research in MANET, but areconsider separately with different objectives andarchitectures. No protocols or systems are designed tointegration QoS and security to the integrated compactsystem in MANET. We design new complex user-basedmodel to interaction between User, QoS, Security andDynamic Source Routing protocol (DSR) via SecurityService Vector (SSV). The main challenge is providethe ability to configure own level of QoS and security,and provides user’s new abilities of configuringrequirements to QoS and security. This paperexamines the integration of modified SSV to theMANET. The DSR is modified to implement SSV. Weshow and simulate basic principle and operations ofthis process.
