Abstract :
In this paper, we embed an incentive-compatible, efficient, and individual rational payment scheme into our cost- and stability-based routing protocol in ad hoc networks which consist of selfish nodes. Unlike traditional routing protocols in ad hoc networks, which only elicit cost information from selfish nodes, our protocol motivates selfish nodes to report truthfully both their stability and cost information
