These techniques are named (i) Connected Mechanism and (ii) Extended Mechanism. The first one detects jamming by comparing the performance parameters with respect to directly connected neighbors by interchanging packets with performance metric information, whereas the latter, jamming detection relays comparing defined zones of nodes related with a collector node, and using information of this collector detects a possible affected zone. The effectiveness of these techniques were tested in simulated environment of a quadrangular grid of 7 \u00d7 7, each node delivering 10 packets\/sec, and defining as collector node, the one in the lower left corner of the grid. The jammer node is sending packets under reactive jamming. The mechanism was implemented and tested in AODV (Ad hoc On Demand Distance Vector), DSR (Dynamic Source Routing), and MPH (Multi-Parent Hierarchical), named AODV-M, DSR-M and MPH-M, respectively. Results reveal that the proposed techniques increase the accurate of the detected zone, reducing the detection of the affected zone up to 15% for AODV-M and DSR-M and up to 4% using the MPH-M protocol.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s19112489","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,5,31]],"date-time":"2019-05-31T11:59:56Z","timestamp":1559303996000},"page":"2489","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["New Detection Paradigms to Improve Wireless Sensor Network Performance under Jamming Attacks"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"19","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0272-3275","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Carolina","family":"Del-Valle-Soto","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Facultad de Ingenier\u00eda, Universidad Panamericana, \u00c1lvaro del Portillo 49, Zapopan, Jalisco 45010, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Carlos","family":"Mex-Perera","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"ITAM, Rio Hondo 1, Ciudad de M\u00e9xico 01080, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ivan","family":"Aldaya","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Campus Sao Joao da Boa Vista, Sao Paulo State University, 505 Jardim das Flores, SP., Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8638-8373","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fernando","family":"Lezama","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Group on Intelligent Engineering and Computing for Advanced Innovation and Development (GECAD), Polytechnic of Porto (IPP), 4000-045 Porto, Portugal"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Juan Arturo","family":"Nolazco-Flores","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Computing Department School of Engineering and Science, Tecnol\u00f3gico de Monterrey, Campus Puebla, V\u00eda Atlixc\u00e1yotl No. 5718, Reserva Territorial Atlixc\u00e1yotl, Puebla Pue. 72453, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3465-995X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Raul","family":"Monroy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Tecnologico de Monterrey, Escuela de Ingenier\u00eda y Ciencias, Carr. al lago de Guadalupe Km 3.5, Margarita M. de Ju\u00e1rez, Atizap\u00e1n, EdoMex 54766, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,5,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"550","DOI":"10.1109\/COMST.2016.2610578","article-title":"A Survey of Multi-Objective Optimization in Wireless Sensor Networks: Metrics, Algorithms, and Open Problems","volume":"19","author":"Fei","year":"2017","journal-title":"IEEE Commun.
