    An Assessment of Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) Issues: Jerry Usery CS 526 May 12, 2008

    Uploaded by

    This document discusses issues related to mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs). It covers the history of MANETs including three generations starting in 1972. Uses of MANETs are growing for emergency/rescue operations and military networks due to their flexibility. Technical concerns include routing challenges due to bandwidth constraints, power limits, and frequent topology changes. Two common routing protocols are discussed: DSR, which is simple and scales well for around 200 nodes, and AODV, which supports rapid adaptation and finds unicast routes. Security is a major issue without a client-server structure, as attacks can come from compromised internal nodes or distorted external information.

    An Assessment of Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) Issues

    Jerry Usery CS 526 May 12th, 2008

    MANET Issues - Overview

    History Uses Technical Concerns DSR and AODV Routing Security

    MANET Issues - History

    Three generations of ad-hoc network systems

    1 1972, PRNET

    ALOHA, CSMA Packet-switched network No infrastructure Increased radio performance

    2 1980s, SURAN

    3 Current generation

    MANET Issues - Uses

    Growing need

    Emergency and rescue operations Disaster relief efforts Military networks

    Flexibility and speed of set-up is key

    MANET Issues Technical Concerns

    Routing has been problematic

    Existing Internet protocols intended for fixed infrastructure Limited success with conventional protocols at each router

    Bandwidth, power constraints, topology changes and SECURITY concerns

    Link state protocols (bandwidth, reliability issues) On-demand protocols (frequent topology changes)

    MANET Issues DSR and AODV Routing

    DSR

    Simple, specifically designed for MANETs Implemented on several testbeds Connected to Internet Route discovery & maintenance Scales automatically Allows multiple routes to any node Designed for approximately 200 nodes, unicast IPv4 packets

    MANET Issues DSR and AODV Routing (Cont)

    AODV

    Experimental protocol Rapid adaptation to dynamic link changes Low use of the network Low memory overhead and processing Finds unicast routes within the network Uses destination sequence numbers (no loops) Nodes notified when link is broken IPv6 packets

    MANET Issues Security


    Major Issue with as needed connections Client-server structure does not apply Availability, confidentiality, integrity, authentication, nonrepudiation all face challenges Dynamic security solution required External attacks Active - Erroneous routes, replaying old information, false route queries, distortion of route information Passive - Eavesdropping data, analyzing traffic Internal attacks Compromised nodes can use standard security to protect their attacks Valid signatures must be validated
