Abstract

Ad hoc wireless networks are emerging as widely used technology in various domains. Among a diversity of application armed forces use it for sensing and tracking devices, environment monitoring, patient monitoring and tracking intelligent ambiance. Security is important because of its open availability and energy consumption. Hence, it is very challenging to save energy and enhanced security in an wireless sensor network. As the triggered packets promulgate through the network towards final data accession point, it will result in the energy consumption in a low powered network. Therefore the most important aspect of such networks is the energy of the nodes, which directly affects the lifetime of the entire networks. This paper assesses the impact of two secure algorithm such as Tiny Encryption Algorithm (TEA) and Data Encryption Standard (DES) security process on ad hoc wireless network. Hence, number of evaluations are undertaken in the simulator in order to accurately establish energy consumption for above mentioned algorithms. These two algorithms are implemented using Castalia Simulator and compared on parameters, such as available energy, maximum packet size, packet header overhead, frame overhead, routing cost, energy consumed per node, etc. The comparison between the security parameters are graphically plotted with detailed analysis.
