Abstract: Wireless Sensor networks and Wireless Ad Hoc networks are upcoming fields that demonstrate merit in the research domain due to their versatile nature. Our goal is to detect the misbehaviour in wireless LAN and to overcome this problem. Nodes tend to misbehave when their energy level is below a particular level and this scenario is labelled as selfish behaviour. The main idea of this paper is to detect this misbehaviour in the shortest time possible and to overcome this problem using Energy sharing.

Keywords: Node misbehaviour, energy sharing, Wi-Fi protocol
