Abstract(in English) Wireless sensor networks(WSN) which employ a large number of wireless sensor nodes to monitor physical or environmental conditions has attracted many attentions. However many research challenges exist in WSN. One of the major issues WSN face is power management. Usually wireless sensor nodes are required long life with small size batteries, and they periodically sleep in order to reduce power consumption. Another important issue is security. Because the open nature of the wireless communication they are vulnerable to various security attacks. Wormhole attack is one of the most serious attacks against WSN, because wormholes are created with regular routing procedure. Most of proposed methods against wormhole attack assume continuous operation, but it is not satisfied in low-powered WSN. In this paper, we focused on an actual behavior of low-powered synchronized WSN, and propose wormhole detection based on skews in time synchronization protocol.
