The Impact of Resource Consumption Attack on Signal-Stability based Adaptive Routing Protocol in Manet

Objectives: It analyzed the simulation based study for impact of resource consumption attack on Signal-Stability Based Adapting (SSA) routing protocol in MANET. The performance of routing protocol is calculated by using these different parameters like throughput, Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), end to end delay (E2E), routing overhead and energy consumption. Methods/ Statistical Analysis: The whole simulation is carried out through NS-2. NS-2 (Network Simulator version 2) is used for this simulation which is developed by UC Berkely. NS-2 is basically a combination of two languages OTcl and C++. Components of NS-2 are NAM (Network Animator), Proposing, Post prosing. NS-2 is a discrete event simulator in this C++ is easy to code but slower to run whereas OTcl is fast to run and difficult to code. Findings: We see the impact of this attack with three different performance metrics such as End to End, routing overhead, energy consumption throughput and packet delivery ratio (PDR).
