A Survey on Selfish Node Detection in Mobile Ad Hoc Network

Mobile Ad-hoc Networks are self-configuring, infrastructure-less network for connecting the mobile devices. Security for this network is a big issue because of its frequently changing topology and dynamic nature. Some of its nodes behave selfishly while preserving their own energy, thus the quality of the network goes down. In this paper we discussed about different kind of selfish node detection techniques in mobile ad-hoc network. KeywordsMobile Ad-Hoc Network, Selfish nodes, Security.
