COMPRESSED SENSING BASED CLONE IDENTIFICATION FRAMEWORK FOR WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORK

Abstract

ABSTRACT One of the mainly vexing problems in wireless sensor network security is the node Clone attack. Aattack, an adversary breaks into a sensor node, reprograms it, with inserts several copies of the node back into the sensor network. Cloning give the adversary and simple way to build an army of malicious nodes that can cripple the sensor network. In for the most part of wireless sensor application security is individual of the prime concern. Generally sensor nodes be not equipped with several tamper resistant hardware and they are deployed in a hostile environment, so the option of occurring attacks should be greater. In node clone attack adversary will capture few nodes since the network, retrieving its credentials with creating large amount of clones by reprogramming the nodes. And these clones can have the ability to subvert the complete network. so the detection of node clone attacks in a wireless sensor network is therefore a fundamental problem. In circulated environment various protocols are available to detect the clone attack. Thus far, various schemes have been proposed to detect replicas; though, mainly of them require expensive hardware like global positioning system (GPS) to obtain the location of a sensor node. In common, sensor nodes be equipped among limited set of resources, to suit for resource constraint sensor application; hence it is not practical to employ additional devices like GPS in them for the detection process.
