Abstract

Mobile Ad-hoc Networks) are one of the fastest emerging networks. MANET is an unstructured network in which nodes are mobile and autonomous. Nodes act as hosts as well as routers. This mobility may leads to insecurity in MANET. BFOA (Bacterial foraging optimization algorithm) is a Bio-inspired Algorithm. This algorithm simulates the behavior of bacteria that can be effectively applied in various fields. A new protocol is proposed here, named BFAODV by applying BFOA technique on AODV. The proposed protocol improves the performance metrics in comparisons to DSDV and AODV protocols. This paper detects and prevents from black hole attack using proposed BFAODV algorithm.
