Abstract

Ad hoc network is a society of nodes who work in cooperative manner in accordance with self regulatory protocol. So reputation and trust should be built up and selfishness be dealt with a proper regulatory protocol. Selfish nodes are those which do not behave as the protocol specifies, with a wish to conserve power. This paper proposes an environmental compensation algorithm to the General Reputation Model. The algorithm provides a scheme as a mean to mitigate the detrimental effect of selfish nodes. And it deals for the first time with the security -the environment's influence on nodes' behavior. It also shows how to establish trusts in different areas with different environmental characteristics.
