Study on network topology evolution model and strategies in hostility surroundings

Abstract

Multi-hop wireless network is one of the most important military communication networks. In hostility environment, the network topology evolution is driven by both attacker and defender. In order to reveal the law of network topology evolution, the network architecture is analyzed at first. Secondly, the network mathematic model and dynamic topology evolution model are established. After that the validity evaluation rules of network topology are proposed. Finally, some offensive and defensive strategies are given. The proposed model and strategies can be used in both network attack and defending.
