implementing tree topology in wireless sensor network in matlab

[suraksha]

I am a MTech Student doing my final research work on preventing the flooding attack in the wireless sensor network. The tool suggested to me is MATLAB. As I am very new to this field and to MATLAB also. So please help me from where should I start writing the code write from the scratch. The things which I have thought to do in my project are: Module 1) Creating a tree based cluster of the sensor network. Module 2) Deploying a method on the internal nodes of the tree to detect if flooding is going on or not. Module 3) After detecting the victim node, will trace back the path to the attacker node and exclude the attacker from the network. Initially I need the guidance to write the code for my first module so please help me from where should I start. Thanks in advance.--

Hi Suraksha,

Having had some experience in Graduate Research, I will offer my two cents:

Usually a good place to start networking research is to find a good simulator for your system. Many universities around the world have research in the field of Wireless Sensor networks. Most should have some simulator that lets them simulate different parts of the network. At the least, these simulators should let you create a network based on a specific topology and simulate attacks (or model traffic). If you can then find one that also lets you simulate individual nodes and their routing protocols as well, you should be able to create your entire system.

I realize that this is a generic response and so this might not be what you are looking for. At any rate, you will have more luck if you do a survey of existing work on the subject. It should certainly give you more ideas on how to proceed.

Good Luck!

Thank you,

hi all, this is asha, wanted to implement" 3D under water sensor network node localization" on matlab...

So if some bady know some thing please let me know.

Thank you.
