Abstract
This paper studies the impact of two base transceiver station selection mechanisms, namely, the distance-based eNodeB (DBM) and the signal power-based eNodeB (SPBM) mechanisms, on a mobile botnet launching a distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack on a Long Term Evolution (LTE) network. Simulation results using the Riverbed Modeller reveal that in comparison to DBM, using SPBM to enable the mobile devices’ connections with the serving eNodeB stations can reduce the impact of the attack severity of the mobile botnet on the victim server, from 100% to 70%.
