Abstract

A watchdog monitors neighboring nodes in a multihop wireless ad-hoc network to determine whether they are forwarding packets or not. In this paper we have presented detailed study of our experiments with implementing watchdog functionality on a real-life ad-hoc network testbed. Experiments were conducted on our university campus to test the functionality under different network topologies.
