Abstract


Mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) have been a crucial element of next-generation wireless networking technologies during the last decade. Because they allow users to access information and communicate with each other without infrastructure. Selfishness is one of the numerous undesirable behaviors that MANET network nodes may exhibit since this selfish node attempts to safeguard its own resources while accessing the services of other nodes and consuming their resources. Hence, a potential that the network's overall performance may degrade. This study developed a new method named detection, reintroduced, and collaborative of selfish node (DRCSN) that proposed detecting selfish nodes based on two factors: energy and the communication ratio (CR) and handling the rate of selfish nodes. Thus, selfish nodes were exploited to the maximum degree and significantly improve network performance. DRCSN was implemented inside ad-hoc on-demand distance vector (AODV) protocol. The test scenarios were implemented using the network simulator-2 (NS-2); many scenarios were created according to two important network parameters: the number of nodes and movement nodes. The proposed method improved the MANET's performance by increasing both the throughput and packet delivery ratio in the network in addition to that it reduced retransmission rate, delay, and power consumption compared to the related methods.
