A Novel Clustering Approach for Manets Based on Mobility

Nima Karimi, Mohammad Shayesteh · ASME Press eBooks · 2011

In recent years, many studies have been conducted in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks field in order to make a virtual infrastructure consisting of nodes. The common goal of all was to select a node called cluster-head which guarantees relationships between nodes. In this paper, we have presented a new clustering algorithm in Mobile Ad Hoc Network based on nodes weight. For calculating node weight we present four new parameter, congestion, stability, number of nodes moving towards a node and battery remaining. The goal of this algorithm is to decrease the number of cluster forming, maintain stable clustering structure and maximize...
