e-ARAN: Enhanced Authenticated Routing for ad hoc networks to handle selfish nodes

Mobile ad hoc network requires lots of attention towards secure reputed routing. This paper proposed a novel reputed e-ARAN scheme to detect and handle authenticated selfish nodes, based on reputed OCEAN scheme. With description of all four phases of reputed e-ARAN it also proves that the proposed scheme gives better end-to-end delay and throughput as compare to existing ARAN protocol.
