Prabhleen Kaur, Sukhman . An Overview on MANET- Advantages, Characteristics and Security Attacks. International Conference on Advances in Emerging Technology. ICAET2016, 1 (September 2016), 6-9.
Wireless technology has brought a very advance change in the field of internet. It has given rise to many new applications. In recent years, a lot of work has been done in the field of Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET) that makes it so popular in the area of research work. MANET is an infrastructure-less, dynamic network. It consists of collection of wireless mobile nodes, and the communication between these nodes has carried out without any centralized authority. In this paper the discussion has been carried on the characteristics, challenges, applications, security goals and different types of security attacks of MANET.
