Abstract :
Securing the routing of message in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) is still a challenging issue. This paper proposes an enhanced trust-based multipath Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) protocol (so-called ETB-MDSR) to securely transmit messages in MANETs. Our method consists in a combination of soft-encryption, novel trust management strategy, and multipath DSR routing. Simulation results are presented to validate our proposal, showing that our ETB-MDSR scheme outperforms a recently proposed Trust-Based Multipath DSR message scheme (TB-MDSR), in terms of route selection time.
