It is expected that many networks will be providing services at a time in near future and those will also produce different interfering signals for the current Slotted ALOHA based systems. A random packet destruction Denial of Service (DoS) attacking signal can shut down the Slotted ALOHA based networks easily. Therefore, to keep up the services of Slotted ALOHA based systems by enhancing the secured operating regions in the presence of the interfering signals from other wireless systems and DoS attacking signals is an important issue and is investigated in this paper. We have presented four different techniques for secured operating regions enhancements of Slotted ALOHA protocol. Results show that the interfering signals from other wireless systems and the DoS attacking signals can produce similar detrimental effect on Slotted ALOHA. However, the most detrimental effect can be produced, if an artificial DoS attack can be launched using extra false packets arrival from the original network. All four proposed secured operating regions enhancement techniques are easy to implement and have the ability to prevent the shutdown of the Slotted ALOHA based networks. | Secured operating regions of Slotted ALOHA in the presence of interfering signals from other networks and DoS attacking signals
