On the Hardness of Minimum Cost Blocking Attacks on Multi-Path Wireless Routing Protocols

Overview This paper demonstrates the provable superiority of multi-path routing protocols over other conventional protocols against blocking, node-isolation and network-partitioning type-attacks in Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) by emulating adversarial behavior. Though the underlying network model is of a WMN with mobile nodes, the results in this paper are equally applicable to other types of wireless data networks.
