摘要：Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) consists of a small size battery powered sensor nodes. Due to their constrained characteristics, WSNs are vulnerable to various attacks, which make the security a major concept to handle. Intrusion detection system (IDS) becomes essential tools to ensure the safety of this kind of network. However, since sensors nodes are usually equipped with small and limited energy resources, a significant limitation is presented mainly in terms of energy autonomy which therefore affects the network lifetime. Thereby, It is greatly important to ensure an efficient IDS by strategically deploying an appropriate collector to minimize the amount of energy consumed. In this paper we propose an efficient mobile agent collector to minimize energy consumption and delay transmission for IDS in WSN. The proposed mobile agent collector is validated through simulation experiments using OMNET++ and Castalia simulator, sensor nodes positions are predefined by the base station whilst Dijkstras algorithm is used to find the optimal path towards the base station passing by source nodes to gather the required data. The simulation provides empirical results illustrating the effectiveness of our approach.
