An Improved Combined Bandwidth-Trust Secure Routing Framework

Abstract

In recent past, trust aware protocols play an important role in security of wireless sensor networks(WSN),which is one of the common network technologies for smart city. However along with trust only distance metric was considered but some important metrics such as bandwidth were not included in conventional trust aware routing protocols. These excluded metrics are important for higher throughput and efficiency. In our thesis we will use these metrics in addition to distance and trust for our route selection. Besides this some nodes are attacker nodes, while finding the route from source to destination we will bypass that node.
