Abstract

To make up the existing deficiencies of clone attack detection methods of wireless sensor networks, a low resource consumption clone detection method (MSCD) for multi-base station wireless sensor networks is proposed. MSCD has the following characteristics: (1) Running in each ring network with base station as the center and using nodes in non-hotspot area to complete clone attack detection, which reduces the effect of clone attack detection on the network lifetime; (2) Combine the head node rotation mechanism and the backup head node mechanism to ensure the energy balance of the network; (3) The ring head node path can find clone nodes that come from different local networks, which makes the MSCD method be suitable for the whole multi-base station network. Meanwhile, in the detection domain of the head node, local broadcast is used to ensure the encounter of legitimacy verification messages and witness nodes; (4) It is proved theoretically that the clone detection probability of MSCD can reach 1 when the witness is credible. The theoretical analysis and the simulation results show that the MSCD clone detection probability is still above 98% when the number of clone nodes accounts for 10% of the total number of nodes, and the network lifetime and storage requirements are significantly better than the existing similar methods.

Highlights

  • Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is a kind of multi-hop self-organizing network which combines a large number of distributed deployed sensor nodes together through wireless communication technology to collect, process and transmit the surrounding data to support the user’s decision [1], [2]

  • In a multi-base station network, if the corresponding witness node cannot be matched, legitimacy verification messages will continue to be transmitted along the ring path consisting of head nodes until the detection information traverses all the head nodes of the witness area, and report to the base station that the clone attack from another local network has been found

  • In the process of legitimacy verification of the multi-base station network, if the detection message returns to the head node of the first received message again, it means that there is no witness node of the source node in the ring, and the head node reports to the base station that a clone attack from other local network is found

Summary

INTRODUCTION

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is a kind of multi-hop self-organizing network which combines a large number of distributed deployed sensor nodes together through wireless communication technology to collect, process and transmit the surrounding data to support the user’s decision [1], [2]. Han: Low Resource Consumption Clone Detection Method for Multi-Base Station Wireless Sensor Networks. If multi-base station wireless sensor networks use the same set of encryption and decryption method, the attacker can capture the nodes in one of the local network and deploy the cloned nodes in another network, so as to reduce the risk of detected. This paper proposes a low resource consumption clone detection method for multi-base station wireless sensor networks (MSCD). In a multi-base station network, if the corresponding witness node cannot be matched, legitimacy verification messages will continue to be transmitted along the ring path consisting of head nodes until the detection information traverses all the head nodes of the witness area, and report to the base station that the clone attack from another local network has been found.
