A Survey of Packet Dropper Detection in Wireless Network

Abstract

Mobile ad hoc network is set of nodes which build network dynamical for exchanging information over a multi hop wireless communication .In MANET free travelling of misbehavior or packet dropper nodes is most important matter for the organization and survivability of self-organized network. The misbehavior of this node affects the performance of network. Different techniques are proposed by the researchers to mitigate this misbehavior. In this paper we study some of the important work carried out in mitigating misbehavior of packet dropper node and providing comparison between the different proposed methods.
