Identifying selfish nodes using mutual neighbor based watchdog mechanism for DTN

The multi-hop communication in Mobile Adhoc Networks can be a dependable communication, just when the hand-off nodes are collaborates Sometime, the versatile nodes in the MANET is not prepared to coordinate with different nodes. As versatile nodes are asset compelled one, they are not prepared to share its assets for different nodes communication. This conduct of nodes is called as self-centeredness conduct. The vicinity of egotistical nodes in the MANET corrupts the general execution of the system. The watchdog system is the best answer for recognize the egotistical nodes in the system. Be that as it may the utilization of neighborhood watchdog system alone causes high false positive and false negative rate in the profoundly dynamic environment and not suitable for Delay Tolerant Networks as it requires long investment to find egotistical node. To defeat these issues, we are utilizing Mutual Neighbor based watchdog mechanism alongside Misbehavior Report Authentication plan. The recreation results demonstrate this methodology reduce the time to recognize the selfish nodes with the lessening in false positive and false negative rate.
