Analysis of Security Mechanism in Adhoc Network

Abstract

newlineWireless Adhoc network is a decentralized local area network. Adhoc Net- newlinework means a Network which is built spontaneously without any pre-existing newlineinfrastructure. It works in a multi-hop fashion. Nodes work as both host and newlinespecialized router to forward the data packets to its neighboring nodes. Nodes newlinecan leave or join the network anytime because of the lack of centralization. It newlineworks on the newlineooding techniques for forwarding the information to neighbor newlinenodes. There are various advantages of Adhoc networks like: self-organized, newlineadaptive, no central administration and easy to install. Adhoc networks can newlinebe deployed quickly with minimal overhead. This nature makes suitable for newlineemergency use such as in earthquake, disaster areas, in a conference room newlinewhere people need to share information. Ad-hoc networks are of mainly 3 newlinetypes:
