DT-RRNS: Routing Protocol Design for Secure and Reliable Distributed Smart Sensors Communication Systems

Area of Science:

• Computer Science
• Network Security
• Distributed Systems

Background:

• Smart cities require robust communication systems for IoT devices.
• Existing Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) and Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANET) face challenges in speed, reliability, and security.
• Heterogeneous networking in smart cities demands advanced routing solutions.

Purpose of the Study:

• To propose an efficient, secure, and reliable routing protocol for distributed dynamic heterogeneous networks.
• To enhance data transmission in WSN and MANET environments.
• To address the security and reliability requirements of smart city communication systems.

Main Methods:

• Combining Secret Sharing Schemes (SSS) and Redundant Residual Number Systems (RRNS) for data transmission.
• Developing a novel routing protocol named Distributed dynamic heterogeneous network Transmission with Redundant Residual Number Systems (DT-RRNS).
• Analyzing data transmission based on RRNS, which encodes data into shares for parallel transmission.

Main Results:

• The proposed DT-RRNS protocol demonstrates increased speed, reliability, and security.
• Adaptive multipath secured transmission protects data from route attacks.
• Self-correcting properties inherent in RRNS improve fault tolerance.

Conclusions:

• The DT-RRNS protocol offers an efficient mechanism for secure and reliable data routing in smart city networks.
• The integration of SSS and RRNS provides a robust solution for heterogeneous networks.
• This approach enhances the overall performance and resilience of smart city communication infrastructure.
