BGP is the default inter-domain routing protocol in today's Internet, but has serious security vulnerabilities\cite{murphy2005bgp}. One of them is (sub)prefix hijacking. IETF standardizes RPKI to validate the AS origin but RPKI has a lot of…

We propose a routing protocol for wireless networks. Wireless routing protocols allow hosts within a network to have some knowledge of the topology in order to know when to forward a packet (via broadcast) and when to drop it. Since a…
