A large number of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) security schemes have been proposed in the literature, relying primarily on symmetric key cryptography. To enable those, Random Key pre-Distribution (RKD) systems have been widely accepted. However, WSN nodes are vulnerable to physical compromise. Capturing one or more nodes operating with RKD would give the adversary keys to compromise communication...
Unattended Wireless Sensor Networks (UWSNs) are networks that operate without on-line data collection entities (Sink Collectors). This configuration enriches their flexibility but, at the same time, introduces new security issues. A challenging issue is data survival: in absence of the sink, in fact, data sensed by network sensors cannot be kept clear from the adversary. Cryptographic schemes, moreover,...
In recent years, various routing protocols have been proposed for ad hoc networks. Most of these protocols are based upon simulation and security. These protocols still lack in terms of performance efficiency of routing protocols such as avoidance of route breaking, sensing of breakage in route, security and reliability (basically authentication of mobile hops in the real ad hoc networks. i.e. during...
A principal factor in sensor network design is energy efficiency. In this work, we propose to extend the lifetime of sensor networks using appropriate choice of sensor node distribution. The key idea of our scheme is to deploy more nodes in areas of extensive energy usage. Using this scheme of sensor node distribution, we use probabilistic angular routing to route data packets from the sensor nodes...
