Omni-directional an-tennas follow the standard Distributed Coordination Function (DCF) and smart antennas follow the Directional DCF (DDCF). The proposed DDCF is based on Hybrid Virtual Carrier Sense (HVCS) mechanism,which includes Omni-directional Request-To-Send/Clear-To-Send (ORTS/OCTS) hand-shake mechanism and directional data transmission. HDCF is compatible with DCF. When a node transmits in a directional beam,the other nodes can multiplex the physical channel. Hence,HDCF supports Space Division Multiple Access (SDMA). Simulation results show that HDCF can support hybrid antennas effectively and provide much higher network throughput and lower delay and jitter than DCF does.展开更多

To solve the problem of verifying the location claim for a node, a new location verifica- tion algorithm called node cooperation based location secure verification （NCBLSV） algorithm is proposed. NCBLSV could verify malicious nodes by contrasting neighbor nodes and nodes under beam width angle using an adaptive array antenna at a base point. Simulation experiments are con- ducted to evaluate the performance of this algorithm by varying the communication range and the an- tenna beam width angle. Results show that NCBLSV algorithm has high probability of successful ma- licious nodes detection and low probability of false nodes detection. Thus, it is proved that the NCBLSV algorithm is useful and necessary in the wireless sensor networks security.展开更多
