Research on the Attack and Defense Technologies of Wireless Sensor Networks

Abstract:

Wireless sensor network is one of the three emerging technologies which have changed peoples life in the 21st century. More and more scholars at home and abroad are interested in wireless sensor network because of its vast potentials for future development. However, because of openness of the wireless sensor network, it is easily attacked by several network aspects. This paper will introduce the basic concept of wireless sensor network first and then present potential safety hazards on each protocol stack layer of the wireless sensor network from the perspective of layered network. An overview of the current popular means of defense on each protocol stack layer will also be summarized and the future research trend of attack and defense means of the wireless sensor network will be put forward finally in this paper.
