Abstract: Recent studies highlight the existence of link correlation of adjacent wireless links,and this phenomenon has shown significant impact on the performance of various network protocols.The efficiency of these existing link-correlated protocols heavily relies on the accuracy of link correlation measurement.However,analysis shows that due to its features of mobility and RF communication,wireless networks is vulnerable to various threats and attacks.This paper first proposed a spoofing attack mechanism about link correlation aware protocols.When the source node broadcasts packets,some or even all of the corresponding receivers maliciously revise their packet reception bitmaps to tamper link correlation metric,thus degrading protocol performance.Against the attack,a Watchdog-based detection mechanism was proposed to capture a node’s behavior with objective of inferring the real packet reception bitmaps.The simulation results show that this spoofing attack increases the retransmission counts,and degrades the performance of communication protocol,while the propoced detection mechanism can defend the spoofing attack effectively.

Key words: Detection mechanism, Link correlation, Spoofing attack, Wireless network
