Abstract
The purpose of this report is to analyze some current routing solutions to security problems
in ad-hoc networks. We will summarly describe the proposals, and compare them, emphasizing
the main goals of each. The shortcommings/problems will also be noted. We will start by, in
the first section, introduce the characteristics and security problems of ad-hoc networks.
We will then describe some protocols that try to cope with these problems. We will end the
report with some comments and conclusions regarding this analysis.
