Abstract
MANET (Mobile Ad-hoc Network) refers to a multi-hop packet based wireless network composed of a set of mobile nodes that can communicate and move at the same time , without using any kind of fixed wired infrastructure . MANET’S are actually self organizing and adaptive networks that can be formed and deformed on-the-fly without the need of any centralized administration. It generally works by broadcasting the information and used air as medium. It’s broadcasting nature and transmission medium also help attacker to disrupt network. Many type of attack can be done on such Mobile Ad Hoc Network. The emphasis of this paper to study wormhole attack, some detection method and different techniques to prevent network from these attack.
