Abstract
This paper discusses an enhancement of the Watchdog / Pathrater form of Intrusion Detection in Mobile wireless Ad-hoc networks (MANET). The participating nodes are allowed to listen to the nodes they have conveyed messages to, in promiscuous mode, if within a certain timeframe the message is not relayed, then the node is suggested to be tagged as a misbehaving node. Depending on the Trustworthiness of the node’s sending the tag information, and information already relayed by other nodes, the tagged node may then dropped from routing paths by the Pathrater, and new routes formulated. A simple simulation is done to illustrate the modality of this new IDS for MANET.
