ABSTRACT

Intrusion detection in Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is of practical interest in many applications such as detecting an intruder in a battlefield. It is defined as a mechanism for a WSN to detect the existence of inappropriate, incorrect, or anomalous moving attackers. Besides preventing the intruder from causing damages to the network, the intrusion detection system (IDS) can acquire information related to the attack techniques, helping in the development of prevention systems. It is composed of several components, a Monitor to monitor and control the security events, a central Detector or sensor that make decision to identify unauthorized access or illegal actions taking place in the network. In this, we consider the issues according to both Homogeneous and heterogeneous WSN models. Furthermore, we consider two sensing detection models: single-sensing detection and multiple-sensing detection. Our results show the advantage of multiple sensor heterogeneous WSNs.

Keywords: WSN, Intrusion, Homogeneous, Heterogeneous.
