MN603 Wireless Networks and Security Page#2 of 4Prepared by: Dr Nazmus Shaker Nafi Moderated by: Dr Wanood Kumar March, 2021Part AAssignment DescriptionEfficient routing can optimize network performance in terms of improved delivery ratio, reduceddelivery delay, and low overhead. In other words, routing determines the sequence of transmittingnodes and the number of packets transmitted by each node. Transmitting nodes and their numberof transmissions influence the generated interference.Routing in wireless sensor networks (WSN) is very challenging due to the inherent characteristics thatdistinguish these networks from other wireless networks like mobile ad hoc networks or cellularnetworks. Routing protocols in WSN might differ depending on the application and networkarchitecture.In this assignment, students will investigate and compare Geographic routing protocols, GreedyPerimeter Stateless Routing (GPSR) and Geographical and Energy Aware Routing (GEAR).The students are required to submit a report including technical details insights on• Routing mechanism of Greedy Perimeter Stateless Routing (GPSR) and Geographical andEnergy Aware Routing (GEAR) protocols.• How these protocols can be used to reduce energy consumption.• Advantages and limitations of using these protocols in WSNsPlease note: Part A report needs to be submitted on Week 3Part BIn part B, students are required to continue their investigation on both routing protocol and submita report covering following aspects of these routing protocols1) Highlight Security issues of both routing protocols2) Discuss the attacks that may happen while operating on these routing protocols3) How to countermeasure the attacks discussed in 2?4) Comparative analysis on performance of the routing protocols.Note: minimum 3 journal papers and 3 conference papers (in IEEE format) must be used in analysisand justificationsMarking criteria: Section to be included inthe reportDescription of the sectionMarksPart A30IntroductionDefine the topic and outline of the report ( in 5-6sentences)5MotivationYou need to motivate the reader about the topic5Routing protocolsanalysisTechnical discussion on routing mechanism1.
