Abstract :
False data injection is a big threat to sensor networks. A traceback mechanism based on probabilistic packet marking is proposed in this paper. The performance of the basic marking method is thoroughly studied. There is a defect in the basic marking method that upstream nodes´ marks are collected by the sink with low probability. To solve the problem, two different improved marking methods-EPPM&EPNM-are proposed. Every node´s marking is collected by the sink with approximately equal probability in EPPM. The sink can locate every node by collecting packets of approximately equal number in EPNM.
