Security Routing Protocol For The Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs)

The pretty promising Wireless Mesh Networking technique, which is regarded as the next generation wireless Internet, not only possesses the normal features of wireless networks, but also has the advantages of multi-hop, self-organizing, etc. However, the great strength of the Mesh Networks also lead to a serious problem in the perspective of network security. This paper starts with the security issue of WMN routing and puts forward the corresponding solutions to the two kinds of routings' security, such as adding the public/private (Pi/Si) key to the AODV to solve the problem of black hole and adding the credit value of nodes to the DSR to improve the security.The pretty promising Wireless Mesh Networking technique, which is regarded as the next generation wireless Internet, not only possesses the normal features of wireless networks, but also has the advantages of multi-hop, self-organizing, etc. However, the great strength of the Mesh Networks also lead to a serious problem in the perspective of network security.
