A Mean Field Game Theoretic Approach for 
Security Enhancements in Mobile Ad hoc 
Networks 
Game theory can provide a useful tool to study the security problem in mobile ad hoc 
networks (MANETs). Most of existing works on applying game theories to security only 
consider two players in the security game model: an attacker and a defender. While this 
assumption may be valid for a network with centralized administration, it is not realistic in 
MANETs, where centralized administration is not available. In this paper, using recent 
advances in mean field game theory, we propose a novel game theoretic approach with 
multiple players for security in MANETs. The mean field game theory provides a powerful 
mathematical tool for problems with a large number of players. The proposed scheme can 
enable an individual node in MANETs to make strategic security defence decisions without 
centralized administration. In addition, since security defence mechanisms consume precious 
system resources (e.g., energy), the proposed scheme considers not only the security 
requirement of MANETs but also the system resources. Moreover, each node in the proposed 
scheme only needs to know its own state information and the aggregate effect of the other

nodes in the MANET. Therefore, the proposed scheme is a fully distributed scheme. 
Simulation results are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
