Abstract

Due to the sharing and open-access characteristics of the wireless medium, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) can be easily attacked by jammers. To mitigate the effects of a jamming attack, one reliable solution is to locate and remove the jammer from the deployed area within the WSN. To realize the jammer’s localization in the WSN, many range-free methods have been proposed. However, most of these methods are sensitive to the distribution of nodes and the parameters of the jammer. For this reason, a jammer location-aware method based on Fibonacci branch search (FBS) is proposed in this article. First, the interference region is estimated by using the interference region mapping service of sensors in wireless sensor networks. Then, the search point is selected in the jamming area and the fitness function is designed according to the average distance from the search point to the boundary sensor. According to the basic branch structure and interactive search rules, the global optimal solution is obtained in the jamming area. Finally, the position of the search point with the best fitness value is used as the estimation of the jammer position. Compared with the existing typical range-free methods, rich simulation experiments demonstrate that the FBS algorithm is superior in the location-aware method for jammers with a higher precision and a lower sensitivity to the distribution of nodes and the parameters of the jammer, respectively.
