Framework for intrusion detection in IEEE 802.11 wireless mesh networks

Intrusion detection system is one of the possible solutions to timely detect the intrusions and alarm for appropriate action. So far many intrusion detection systems have been proposed for ad-hoc networks, however due to the different characteristics, such intrusion detection systems cannot perform well in wireless mesh networks environment. In this paper, we propose a new framework of intrusion detection systems exclusively for wireless mesh networks. This paper will serve as a baseline guide for investigating intrusion detection systems for large scale multi-hop wireless broadband networks.
