Abstract

In mobile ad hoc network (MANET), routing has been the main issue because its high mobility and maintaining its routing structures are important requirements. Geographical routing mostly relies on real time location information, however, there exist lags in correctness of location information, and malicious nodes can cause troubles in accurate location tracking in the network. In order to ensure the correctness of location update information, in this paper, we propose a novel design based on a cluster based geographic routing (CBGR) formulation (Muthusenthil and Murugavalli, 2014), wherein we add a position verification technique based on a direct symmetry test (DST) to securely verify the location claims. We further introduce a new noise threshold parameter in the CBGR formulation to evaluate the correctness of location information based on a DST. Then a location based encryption scheme is employed to protect the estimated location against the eavesdropping attacks. With our simulation results, we show that the proposed location verification technique for CBGR (LVT-CBGR) network enhances the network security and performs better compared to other protocols in terms of performance metrics. The experimental outcomes illustrate the fact that our approach is well-geared to scale down the overall network expenditure.
