  2. Abstract:
  3. Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANET) due to different characteristics from wired networks are more vulnerable to security attacks. Construction of Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) for MANETs is complicated by the fact that they are lack of fixed infrastructure and lack of central management for authentication and distribution of cryptographic keys. On the other hand, the network lifetime is an important issue in MANETs because of the energy power of mobile nodes is limited. In this paper is presented a proposed Method that in the first step, authorized nodes are detected by non-interactive zero knowledge technique and in the second step, nodes with the highest battery power from among authorized nodes as IDS agent nodes are considered. The IDS agents in Intrusion detection Systems because of monitoring activities need to more energy power. Simulation results are given to validate the efficiency of our approach in the network lifetime
