Abstract
The performance of mobile ad hoc network transmissions subject to disruption, interference, and jamming can be improved by using the concept of network coding.By focusing on the Optimized Link State Routing (OLSR) protocol, an IDS mechanism to accurately detect and isolate misbehavior node(s) in OLSR protocol based on End-to-End (E2E) communication between the source and the destination is proposed. The collaboration of group of neighbor nodes is used to make accurate decisions. Creating and broadcasting attackers list to neighbor nodes enables other node to isolate misbehavior nodes. Eliminating misbehavior nodes allow the source to select another path to its destination. The simulation results show that the proposed mechanism is able to detect any number of attackers while keeping low overhead in terms of network traffic. The conditions for the sustainability (or compliance) of the social norm are identified, and a sustainable social norm that maximizes the social utility is designed via selecting the optimal design parameters, including the social strategy, reputation threshold, reputation update frequency, and the generation size of network coding. Finally, practical issues, including distributed reputation dissemination and the existence of altruistic and malicious users, are discussed.
