VAMPIRE ATTACKS IN WSN CAN LEAD BY ELOA

Abstract

 Wireless Sensor Networks in today’s world are the basic means of communication. An ad hoc network is a group of wireless nodes, in which each node can communicate over multihop paths to any other node without the help of any preexisting infrastructure such as base station or access points. Owing to these feature ad hoc low power wireless networks are capable of sensory and pervasive computing which forms the wireless ad hoc sensor network. The limitations of system are resources like battery power, communication range and processing capabilities. One of the major challenges in Wireless Sensor Networks is the security concerns. The attacks affecting these systems are increasing as they progress. One of the resource depletion attacks called vampire attacks are the major concern. They not only affect a single node but they bring down the entire system draining the power i.e. Battery
power. In this paper, the system proposed overcomes this challenge by using the Energy load observing Algorithm
(ELOA) and the energy consumption is reduced to a great-extend.
