Abstract: Mobile Ad-hoc networks is an ascertaining domain with promising advancements, attracting researchers with a scope of enhancements and evolutions. These networks lack a definite structure and are autonomous with dynamic nature. The strength of the Ad-hoc network lies in the routing protocols making it an apt choice for transmission. With several types of routing protocols available our focus is on LGF (Location-based Geo-casting and Forwarding) protocol that falls in Position based category. LGF assures to grab the attention with its feature of low bandwidth consumption and routing overhead at the cost of unvolunteered attacks resulting in compromising the security of data. In our approach, we present a technique to overcome the profound attacks like Wormhole and Blackhole by aggregating LGF with k++ Means Clustering aiming at route optimization and promoting security services. The proposed mechanism is evaluated against QoS factors like End to End delay, Delivery Ratio, Load balancing of LGF using Simulator NS3.2 which envisioned drastic performance acceleration in the aforementioned model.
