Secure Framework for Integrated Multipath MANET with Internet

Abstract

With the increasing demand of ubiquitous computing, the interconnection of mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) to Internet is also getting attractive, which is so-called hybrid or connected MANET. In MANET paradigm, routing is a challenging task due to mobility and the resulting inherent dynamic network topology. In many applications, multipath routing scheme is favorable than single-path routing due to many advantages. Security issues in hybrid MANET, however, is still challenging task. There are two critical issues for providing a secure multihop route discovery: Internet connectivity and ad hoc routing. In this paper, we present architecture framework for secure hybrid multipath MANET that can provide global connectivity. We provide security analysis by using BAN logic.
