摘要

The emergence of interconnected UAVs has given rise to the creation of flying ad hoc networks (FANETs) aimed at efficiently facilitating network-dependent services. However, FANET encountered considerable challenges in achieving reliability due to security issues influenced by the existence of malicious nodes. These nodes continuously engage in communication and present a significant threat. These issues are precisely addressed in this article by introducing a novel methodology enhancing network security through a game theory-driven decision tree approach. The proposed strategy involves the implementation of a cluster mechanism based on path similarity techniques. Additionally, an optimized strategy put forth to minimize cluster overhead. Comparing with state-of-the-art protocols in identifying malicious nodes within the network, the results indicate a notable enhancement averaging at 52.84%. Moreover, in aspects such as delay reduction, precision rate increase, and message drop minimization, the experimental outcomes exhibit average improvements of 42.17%, 65.24%, and 46.63%, respectively.
