Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

A challenge in designing wireless sensor networks is to maximize the lifetime of the network with respect to limited resources and energy. These limitations make the network particularly vulnerable to attacks from adversaries. Denial of Service (DOS) is considered a severely damaging attack in monitoring applications when intruders attack the network and force it to lose its power and die early. There are intrusion detection approaches, but they require communications and calculations which waste the network’s limited resources. In this paper, we propose a new intrusion detection model that is suitable for defending against DOS attacks. We use the idea …
