HADOF: Defense Against Routing Disruptions in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

Overview HADOF is a set of mechanisms to defend against routing disruptions in mobile ad hoc networks. Based on the observed behavior and the history record of each node, HADOF aims to detect and punish malicious nodes, and improve network performance. For each node, the first mechanism is to launch a route traffic observer to monitor the behavior of each valid route in its route cache, and to collect the packet forwarding statistics submitted by the nodes on this route. Since malicious nodes may submit false report, for each node, the next mechanism is to keep a cheating record database for the other nodes.
