Because of its dynamism any nodes can join and leave the network at any time. So, these networks are easily attacked when the communication takes place. In this study, first researchers analyzed the behaviour of the attack by using AODV protocol. Researchers used ns-2 to evaluate the proposed mechanism. First, researchers analyzed the network with various network attributes. Second, we detect the attack by using new fast algorithm. The technique is fast because researchers use only single packet to detect the attackers. Third, we compared the research with existing AODV algorithm. The simulation results show that there is significant improvement of the proposed technique in packet delivery ratio rather than existing AODV protocol.
