Abstract :
In recent years, a lot of research is focused on wireless sensor network applications, which is focused on field of performance, security, and energy. This paper addressed the difficulties and challenges facing the wireless sensor networks on the battlefield. Which is often vulnerable to attackerpsilas networks either in the data or corrupting control devices and attempt to consume a lot of energy by sending a large quantity of useless packets, which contributes to excessive consumption of energy and leads to exit nodes from work. Since technology has become widespread on battlefields at the present time, then the sensor nodes are vulnerable to attackers from both sides. This research discussed many challenges and gave appropriate solutions. The simulations showed that these solutions can help secure data and saved 40% of energy consumed.
