  Probabilistic Modeling and Estimation of Network Blocking Probability for Selfish Behavior Attack in Mobile Ad hoc Networks  
  Authors : Kirti A. Adoni; Anil S. Tavildar
  Cite as:

 

Data delivery in Mobile Adhoc Networks (MANETs) gets adversely affected by various malicious attacks. Detection of malicious presence, therefore, becomes important to improve MANET's performance. In this paper probabilistic models have been proposed to characterize random behavior of nodes for Selfish Behavior (SB) attacks. This attack makes nodes unavailable for data forwarding, resulting in increased blocking tendency of the network. Quantification of network blocking probabilities has been proposed. This can then be further used for making appropriate trustworthiness related decisions for nodes, leading to improvement in MANET’s performance, using suitable routing protocols.

Probabilistic Models, Selfish Behavior Attack, Probability of Blocking, MANETs

Maliciousness due to SB attack, has been modeled using uniformly distributed continuous time random variables, Poisson and uniformly distributed discrete values for ONOFF pulses 'k' and binomially distributed number of malicious nodes 'n' of the network. Formulation for probability of network blocking for individual nodes Pbj and total network blocking probability, PB, based on concept of statistical averaging have been proposed. MATLAB based simulations on typical MANET network of fifty nodes, indicate that blocking probability is maximum around k=2 and it saturates for higher values of 'k' for uniform distribution. In the above analysis the basic occurrence of random time for ON-OFF switching of nodes has been assumed to be uniformly distributed in available time. However, any other continuous time distributions like, Gaussian, Lognormal, Exponential distribution etc. may also be used in modeling. The analysis can be carried out, using the similar approach.
