“…The aim ofblackhole nodes (Manikandan and Manimegalai, 2013) is to maximize overall end to end delay and routing overhead for all the traversed nodes in active route and results in low throughput and packet delivery ratio. In recent years, various studies have been made (Usha and Bose, 2012;Jalil et al, 2011;Garg et al, 2012;Ameza et al, 2010;Ramachandran and Shanmugam, 2012;Ehsan and Khan, 2012) to analyze the impact of node misbehavior attacks, especially blackhole attack, on AODV routing protocol in MANET and WSN.…”
