Enhancing Security Solutions and Energy Efficiency in Mobile Ad-hoc Networks

Abstract

As security becomes more of a concern, a secure communication channel must be established to allow mobile nodes to communicate in a antagonistic environment. The features of mobile adhoc networks offer a variety of potential security risks. Security features face nontrivial problems, such as open peer-to-peer networks. Shared wireless media with rigorous network architecture restrictions on available resources, together with changing network topology, provide a difficult design challenge. A security environment is needed to overcome a set of challenges. Self-communicating devices don't need infrastructure to share information and constitute a mobile ad hoc network (MANET). Reducing network inefficiency is a major priority for computer experts who want to improve the central administration's network performance. A Collaborative Operating Committee (ACO) comes up with a higher-lasting energy-efficient route based on the ants' unique knowledge to fine-tune the nodes in the network. FDRPSO is used to help the nodes to have a longer life by making sure that as little energy is wasted during transmission as possible. To avoid nodes always being on, use a duty cycle procedure that's also paired with the hybrid method. ACO-FDR PSO is applied to a 100-node network and NS-3 is used to measure various metrics such as throughput, latency, overhead, energy consumption, and packet delivery ratio. Other techniques are examined to see whether they produced similar findings and also address the security concerns, including the inherent vulnerability of mobile ad hoc networks It is necessary to analyse network, security, and the major attack types in order to provide network and information security.
