Secured routing in wireless mesh network using wormhole resistant trust based authentication and privacy preserving protocol

Abstract

A wireless network is a network in which the nodes of the network newlineare connected using wireless data connections A wireless networking is a newlinemethod by which homes telecommunication networks and enterprise newlineinstallations avoid wired connections They are usually implemented using radio newlinewaves communication A wireless network can be convenient mobile newlineproductive setup easily secure and expandable In Wireless Metropolitan Area newlineNetwork WMAN the biggest drawback is the lack of mobility support and newlineLine Of Sight LOS requirement Furthermore the base stations tend to be newlinecomplex and expensive Wireless mesh networks WMNs overcome most of newlinethese disadvantages by providing lowcost wireless broadband internet access newlineboth for fixed line and mobile users newline newline
