Several Jamming Attacks in Wireless Networks: A Game Theory Approach

Abstract

"Wireless jamming attacks have recently been a subject of several researches, due to the exposed nature of the wireless medium. This paper studies the anti-jamming resistance in the presence of several attackers. Two kind of jammers are considered, smart jammers which have the ability to sense the legitimate signal power and regular jammers which don’t have this ability. An Anti Multi-Jamming based Power Control problem modeled as a non-zero-sum Game is suggested to study how the transmitter can adjust its signal power against several jamming attacks. A closed-form expression of Nash Equilibrium is derived when players actions are taken simultaneously. In addition, a Stackelberg Equilibrium closed-form expression is derived when the hierarchical behavior between the transmitter and jammers is assumed. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme can enhance the anti-jamming-resistance against several attackers. Furthermore, this study proves that on the transmitter side, the most dangerous jammer is considered to have the highest ratio between channel gain and jamming cost. Finally, based on the Q-Learning technique, the transmitter can learn autonomously without knowing the patterns of attackers.
