There are the numbers of techniques available in the literature for the detection of denial of service attack but the effective and efficient detection of this attack in the wireless domain remains open challenges. Recently the detection of distributed denial of services attacks is the major problem in the wireless domain. In this paper, a novel technique has been designed for the detection of distributed denial of service attack in wireless networks. The proposed technique was implemented using NS2 simulator.
