Routing protocol design for secure WSN: Review and open research issues

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have gained a substantial attention in wireless research community as these networks are envisioned to support a large number of practical applications. Due to salient features of sensor networks, the security design for WSN is significantly challenging. Despite a goo...
