A Fuzzy Approach for Calculating Initial Value of Trust in Wireless Sensor Network

Trust Management has a significance effect on the cooperation between nodes in wireless sensor networks(WSNs) [1]. Therefore, it is important to calculate the accurate value of the trust. The most important issue of trust establishment is trust formation [2,3] and this is based on the Initial Valueof trust. In this paper, an easy and low overhead way of calculating Initial Value (IV) is presented. This flexible and adaptive algorithm can be used for homogenous and heterogeneous types of network. Simulation and analyze results demonstrate that this approach helps nodes to reduce time to reach a real trust value
