Wireless mesh Networks (WMNs) are a prominent paradigm of wireless communication that have been widely used in many applications. The growing popularity of such networks opened the door to a profusion of attacks that may target their core functioning leading to a harmful impact on their performance. Hence, the need of robust and fast detection of those attacks became a major prerequisite in order...
Gray hole attacks (a.k.a selective forwarding attacks) are a special case of denial of service (DoS) attack, where a misbehaving mesh router just forwards a subset of the packets it receives but drops the others. In wireless networks, it is particularly hard to detect the presence of such attackers because a packet loss over the wireless link can be due to bad channel quality, medium access collisions,...
Wireless mesh networks, due to their typical architecture and deployment, are able to respond to user expectations as no other technology allows. Its typical multi-level approach facilitates local interactions by nearby wireless nodes from multiple users. Also, adaptation to user expectations on a dynamic manner is able to of further enhancing the capacity of these networks, while increasing its ubiquity...
