Abstract
Malicious nodes in wireless sensor networks will cause a great deviation in aggregation data. Such malicious nodes assigned with the aggregation task can forge and send a mass of false data. As a result, the network may consume a mass of resources and users may make wrong decisions. Concerning this problem, a secure data aggregation scheme based on node self-adaptive monitoring is proposed in this paper. According to the scheme, a master cluster head node and a vice cluster head node are selected, wherein, the vice cluster head node verifies the aggregation data produced by the master cluster head, the intra-cluster monitoring nodes monitor the behaviour of the master and vice cluster head nodes in a self-adaptive manner. Besides, the confidence interval theory is introduced to evaluate and calculate the credibility of nodes and highly credible node data are selected for data aggregation. Both theoretical analysis and experimental results show that our scheme can not only effectively recognise and shield malicious nodes, enhance accuracy of data aggregation but also prevent malicious master cluster head nodes from forging and sending a lot of false data.
