Abstract

In this paper we examine the vulnerability of ad hoc wireless networks due to intentional jamming and propose techniques to enhance network survivability. In the proposed scheme, we first examined the vulnerability of ad hoc wireless networks due to jamming and estimate the effort needed to protect the network. We then offer a hybrid solutions that combines source routing, Forward Error Control Coding, bandwidth efficient modulation, enhancement of hop count etc. We intend to show that, such a hybrid solution is an effective measure to protect ad hoc wireless networks from intentional jamming.
