• Contents: Introduction

• • What is MANET? – A Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is a


decentralized, self-configuring wireless network where nodes
communicate without fixed infrastructure.
• Why is Routing Important? – Since nodes are mobile,
efficient routing protocols are required to ensure reliable data
transmission.
• AODV Protocol – Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV)
is a popular routing protocol that establishes routes only when
needed, reducing overhead.
• Challenges in MANET – Due to dynamic topology and lack of
centralized security, MANETs are vulnerable to various attacks.
• Security Threats – Packet dropping attacks, bandwidth
exhaustion, and malicious node behaviors significantly degrade
network performance.
• Need for a Solution – Identifying and mitigating packet
dropping attacks is crucial for improving network reliability and
efficiency.

Content: Mathematical Model
1. Network Representation
• Let N be the set of nodes in the MANET: N={n1,n2,n3,...,nk} Each node ni has:
• Bandwidth (Bw(ni)) assigned to it.
• Packet forwarding count (Pf(ni)) to track packets sent.

2. Packet Dropping Attack Detection


• Define D(ni) as the number of dropped packets.

• If a node drops packets beyond a threshold (T): D(ni)/Pf(ni)>T⇒ni is an attacker

• Action: Malicious nodes are bypassed, and alternate routes are used.

3. Bandwidth Consumption Attack Detection


• If a node ni requests more bandwidth than a threshold α × Bw(ni): R(ni)>α×Bw(ni)⇒ni is an attacker

• Action:
• Restore bandwidth levels.
• Bypass attacker nodes.
• Redistribute bandwidth fairly.
