Improving Secure Routing Protocols Using Additional Features

Abstract

MANET routing protocols have to manage different problems from those of wired routing protocols. These protocols did not implement security, so it was necessary to implement secure protocols. Secure routing protocols do not usually take into account the impact of security into the performance of the original protocol. This article shows the results obtained after implementing one of these secure protocols, ADSR, both original protocol and optimized version. After an analysis of these results, we propose a change that improves the results of the ADSR protocol.
