ABSTRACT: Jammers can awfully
interfere with the wireless communications. The transmission and reception of
wireless communication is blocked by the jammer. The intruder will place the
jammer in a well topological network area and they can easily track the information.
It will help them to block the signal transmission and reception. Now, the
intention is to track the position of the jammer where it is fixed. The
existing methods rely on the indirect measurements and the boundary node to
find the jammer’s position which degrades the accuracy of the localization. To
improve the efficiency, this paper proposed an efficient method namely
Coincered Node Based Localization of jammers to find the position of the jammer
with high level of accuracy. The proposed system uses the direct measurements,
which is the jammer signal strength. The effectiveness can also be increased by
using the coincered node that will stumble across the true position of the
jammer. The proposed work is compared with existing methods. Then the proposed
mechanism proves better to find the jammer location. The simulation results
estimate that the accuracy of the localization achieves better performance than
the existing schemes.
