Abstract
A mobile ad hoc network consists of nodes that move arbitrarily and form dynamic topologies. The nature of the open structure and scarcely available battery-based energy, node misbehaviors may exist. An individual mobile node may attempt to benefit from other nodes, but refuse to share its own resources. Such nodes are called selfish or misbehaving nodes. These selfish nodes may severely affect the performance of network. In this paper, we propose the selfish aware AODV+2ACK model to detect routing misbehavior and to mitigate their adverse effect. The main idea of the AODV+2ACK  model is to send two-hop acknowledgment packets in the opposite direction of the routing path. In order to reduce additional routing overhead, only a fraction of the received data packets are acknowledged in the AODV+2ACK scheme. Thus, we propose to investigate performance of AODV+2ACK   model even in the presence of selfish nodes and the same has been compared with the ordinary AODV protocol. The simulation study in this paper brings out that the proposed protocol has higher performance  than existing AODV and DSR, in terms of  throughput, packet delivery ratio and end-end delay.
