The MRs collaboratively forward the traffic towards the Internet gateway (IGW). The self-configurable architecture of MRs paves way for malicious intruders to conduct a denial-of-service attack (DoS) on the MRs by flooding the network with a large volume of traffic; thus rendering the system inaccessible to the real users. In this paper, we present a cache based defense at the MRs to identify flooding style DoS attacks. We use a most frequently used cache mechanism to identify such flows and raise an early alert to curb them. We effectively avert any performance degradation by dropping the identified attack flows along the forwarding routers.

However, previous studies mostly focus on the placement of base stations to improve a partial property, not considering all of them. In this paper we propose multiple-objective metric (MOM), which reflects four different metrics for base station placement in wireless sensor networks. First, the ratio of sensor nodes which can communicate with a base station via either single-hop or multi-hop represents the coverage of sensor nodes. Second, the average ratio of sensor nodes after the failure of base stations represents the fault tolerance of a network. Third, the average distance between sensor nodes and their nearest base station represents the energy consumption of a network. Fourth, the standard deviation of the degree of base stations represents the average delay of a network due to congestion.

In this work, to solve these problems we propose the adaptation of directional array antennas in a virtual mobile backbone ad-hoc network. This adaptation can partially solve the complexity problem by activating directional array antennas only at backbone nodes and by performing beamforming techniques it will bring better connectivity of the nodes in the network resulting higher throughput performance","PeriodicalId":403213,"journal":{"name":"2007 2nd International Symposium on Wireless Pervasive Computing","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127720864","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition, it is believed that all services (i.e., both real-time services like voice and also data) can be supported over such a channel using an all-IP network. However, even for 3G networks, the efficient support of services such as voice over IP (VoIP) over wireless packet switched channels is still to be verified in the field.

This paper is concerned with the unheard RTS/CTS problem that arises due to the use of directional transmissions. The problem occurs because a node, while beam-formed in one direction, cannot hear the RTS/CTS messages that arrive on another direction with information pertaining to channel reservation. A node, therefore, transmits when it should defer, leading to unnecessary collisions and degraded performance. In this paper, we propose a new MAC protocol that uses a combination of three features to combat the problem: fragmentation of packets, the use of a tone signal to alert potential collision-causing nodes during ongoing transmission, and the use of a pause period when transmission is likely to lead to a collision. As opposed to other work on this problem, our protocol does not assume separate data and control channels. We present simulation results showing that our protocol can reduce the number of retransmissions of data packets due to the unheard RTS/CTS problem by as much as 86%, thus improving the delay and throughput characteristics of the network.","PeriodicalId":403213,"journal":{"name":"2007 2nd International Symposium on Wireless Pervasive Computing","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132830833","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
