This paper defines the physical reputation-based routing (PRBR) protocol and presents the integration of physical-layer information to facilitate reputation routing in the presence of supernodes. It is possible that nodes will not always be able to reach a supernode coordinator due to the fluctuations in deployment density that occur in stochastic topologies. Additionally, it is possible that supernode data delivery will not always be successful, necessitating retransmissions, which will lead to capacity reductions. As a result, one of the requirements for resilience is that several data relaying mechanisms should be made available, and if at all possible, the selection process amongst them should be dynamic. Simulation results in a malicious topology that is vulnerable to attack from malicious Sybil nodes have been presented. It has been proved that the scheme can bypass the supernodes that are vulnerable to a Sybil attack by routing the majority of its traffic through supernodes that are not vulnerable to Sybil attacks.
