COMPARISON OF THE PERFORMANCE OF TRSAODV WITH AODV UNDER BLACKHOLE ATTACK IN MANETS

Gayathri. D, S. JanakiRaman

Abstract: A MANET is a self configuring, decentralized network of mobile nodes with limited energy and bandwidth. They have dynamic topology which means their topology keeps changing. These bring lot of challenges in routing. Since there is no central authority the mobile nodes act both as hosts as well as routers. They provide great comfort due to their portability and ease of installation with no infrastructure but their nature brings in security issues which could not be compromised which paves way for extensive research. They are vulnerable to many attacks and one such attack, Black hole Attack is implanted and a Trust based AODV, TRSAODV has been proposed to overcome the attack and a comparative analysis of proposed TRSAODV with AODV is done in this paper.
