摘要：Wormhole attack is one of the most serious attacks on DV-Hop localization algorithm. Previous solutions usually require hardware support, or a higher ratio of beacon nodes and very complex mathematical operations. In this paper, we analyze the effect of the wormhole attack on DV-Hop algorithm, which mainly destroys the network topological structure and shrinks hop count between nodes and expands the localization error. We propose a modified DV-Hop method without additional hardware support against wormhole attacks. Through analyzing the characteristics of the neighboring nodes set of nodes attacked, this method detects wormhole attack, then locates nodes by using an improved DV-Hop algorithm. We show that the scheme can detect wormhole attacker adequately, and the obtained localization accuracy is even better than that of the DV-Hop method without wormhole attacks in most cases.
