摘要：Mobile Ad Hoc networks (MANET) consist of a collection of wireless nodes and exchange data among themselves dynamically. The network topology changes frequently due to mobility, disconnections, failures of nodes and network partitioning. Moreover the mobile nodes which are basically resource constrained, exhibit various kinds of faulty behaviors that may be transient or permanent due to the hardware or software problems. In such a situation, the faulty node may not forward packets and the situation becomes worse. Hence fault tolerance is an important design issue to construct a reliable mobile ad hoc network. Due to the presence of faulty nodes, the performance of routing degrades and the reason for the faulty nodes has to be identified to address routing by exploring network redundancies.
