| Abstract |
Vehicular Ad-hoc networks have gained substantial interest from researchers in recent times. They offer the potential to deploy different applications utilized by intelligent transportation systems, which could improve traffic control and ensure road safety. The vehicle has a significant position within a Vehicular Ad hoc network system. Ensuring security is crucial due to the open wireless environment where data are disseminated. This research paper discusses different types of routing attacks that pertain to data availability and authentication. To assess the impact of these attacks on the routing protocol, a simulation was conducted using the Ad hoc on demand distance vector (AODV) routing protocol with the implementation of these attacks. To perform simulations, trace files for both one-lane and two-lane scenarios were employed. The outcomes of the simulations highlight the influence of an attack on the routing protocol performance, which was compared to the performance of the AODV protocol. In the absence of an attack, the AODV protocol demonstrates an improved collision ratio and packet delivery. In comparison to a Sybil attack, other forms of attacks, such as black-hole, gray-hole, and rushing attacks, have a greater influence on the performance of AODV. |
