POINT COORDINATION MECHANISM BASED MOBILE AD HOC NETWORK INVESTIGATION AGAINST JAMMERS

In this paper, a jamming attack (a kind of Denial-of-Service attack) was investigated, which interfered with the normal operation of a Mobile Ad Hoc network, which is more vulnerable to various attacks because of its self-configuration, dynamic characteristics, therefore, jammers would affect the ne...
