Abstract
A mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) may include a plurality of nodes for transmitting data therebetween and a policing node. The policing node may detect intrusions into the MANET by monitoring transmissions among the plurality of nodes to detect transmissions during an unauthorized period and generate an intrusion alert based thereon. The policing node may also detect intrusions based upon one or more of integrity check values which do not correspond with respective data packets, usage of non-consecutive media access control (MAC) sequence numbers by a node, and collisions of packet types and/or MAC addresses.
