Generally, in Static Wireless sensor networks a TRUST mechanism is implemented for reliable data packet transfer over the wireless network. The transfer takes place between sensors to sensor till it reaches its respective base station. Each sensor in the network are trusted nodes which is responsible for transmission. A sensor will have a limited amount of battery life. When the battery life reaches a certain limit it stops transmitting the packets to the neighboring nodes which makes it an untrustworthy node. In Existing system, the False Alarm Detection and Recovery (FADER) technique to detect these untrustworthy nodes. Apart from this there are various other malicious attacks are possible like flooding unrelated messages over the wireless network. In our proposed model using TAES we overcome these malicious attacks and provide a secure wireless sensing environment. We would be introducing the TAES to overcome the problems occurring in the existing model like reduced packet delivery ratio, reduced overall performance, more energy consumption, reduced trust value. We would include a threshold metric limit which would calculated with the help of interactions between the nodes and their trust values. These trust values are responsible for showing the trustworthiness of the nodes in the sensor network as by observing it we can conclude whether the node is malicious or not depending on its trust value with other nodes.
