Abstract—Intentional interference constitutes a major threat for communication networks operating over a shared medium where availability is imperative. Jamming attacks are often...
The research interest in sensor nets is still growing because they simplify data acquisition in many applications. If hardware resources are very sparse, routing algorithms cannot...
