Biography

Dr. Anil Mehta is a Fellow of RapidSOS, an E911 Company, Hawaii, USA. Network Architect and Engineering Manager. His detailed experience is in protocol design for lower (MAC and DLC) and higher layers (Application sch as SIP and Transport layer as well). Work experience contains conceiving and designing new wireless communication protocols for IEEE 802.11 and 802.15.x protocols based wireless systems. Main applications of this research are in emergency applications. Research contributions in developing part of IEEE 802.15 protocol series for reliability and latency constrains. Work done with MERL resulted in publications in IEEE comsoc portfolio conferences including Globecom 2008, ANTS 2009 and ISCC 2010. Research work experience also consists in application layer protocol design for text based protocols specifically Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) in this case. This work consists of collaborative research with Dr. Vijay Gurbani in Bell Laboratories (and several major collaborators) for designing algorithms for enhanced validation of SIP PDUs in the presence of DDoS traffic. The key challenge is to validate text-based PDUs without parsing time in the traditional way. Research uses self-learning algorithms to enhance the passing efficiency of SIP and other text based protocols. Research published in IEEE/IFIP NTMS, NM, IEEE ICC and Bell Labs annual report. Specialties are MAC protocol design for Wireless Sensor Networks. Application layer design for text based protocols.

Multi Attribute Trust Aware Routing for Adversary Detection in Wireless Sensor Networks

Security attacks has become major obstacles in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) and Trust Aware Routing is second line of defense. With an aim to improve on the existing routing mechanisms, in this paper, we propose Interactive, Onlooker and Capability Trust Aware Routing (IOC-TAR), a multi-trust attribute framework for trust management in WSNs. IOC-TAR employs three trust features to establish a trustworthy relationship between sensor nodes for their cooperation. Interactive trust uses communication interactions, onlooker trust uses neighbor node’s opinions and capability trust uses stability and fault tolerance for trust assessment. For, each node, one composite trust factor is formulated and decides its trustworthiness. Extensive simulation experiments are conducted to evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of proposed IOC-TAR in the identification of malicious nodes and the provision of attack resilience. The results declare that the IOC-TAR enhances the attack resilience by improving Malicious Detection rate and reducing False Positive Rate.
