Abstract

In recent years, intrusion detection techniques have been the research spots in the field of Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs). Whereas, as kind of wireless and mobile networks, network traffic and network scale increase continually, some current intrusion detection methods can’t meet the requirement of the network security for network lifetime efficiency and communication cost. In order to improve authentication and monitoring activities for Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) in Mobile Ad hoc Networks, a method for recognizing monitoring nodes with authorized nodes and higher battery power is designed and analyzed. Therefore, with this method, some authorized nodes contribute in monitoring activities and the network lifetime will be increased and also communication cost will be decreased.
