An Efficient Algorithm for Optimization of Power with Computational Security in MANETs

Abstract

The major issues associated with MANETs include the precious battery power of the nodes and security threats from compromised nodes inside the network The introduction of an additional dynamic node may optimize the power but however it leads to jamming and interference and thereby reducing the efficiency of the network Since MANETs have a highly dynamic topology they are vulnerable to active and passive adversaries We aim to optimize the network power with added security features and propose a new algorithm Power with Computational Security PCS Algorithm to overcome the above mentioned drawbacks The PCS Algorithm employs a dynamically computed Power Threshold to achieve efficiency Also We make the network secure by introducing a Security Provider which consists of dealer phase and combiner phase to ensure all the security requirements are met Thus We achieve power efficient and secure data transfer with minimal information and thus it minimizes the mobility resource and prior-trust relationship constraints
