Various Secure Routing Schemes for MANETs: A Survey

MANET is an infrastructure less as well as self configuring network consisting of mobile nodes communicating with each other using radio medium. Its exclusive properties such as dynamic topology, decentralization, and wireless medium make MANET to become very unique network amongst other traditional networks, thereby determining security to be a major challenge. In this paper, we have carried out the survey of various security approaches of Mobile Adhoc Networks and provide a comprehensive study regarding it. We have focused our work on three approaches such as Bayesian watch dog, Trust based systems, and Ant colony optimization. In wireless perspective, security is a crucial term to handle. Therefore it becomes necessary when we are concerning our work with Mobile Adhoc Network.
