Clustering Algorithm which Enhances Clusters' Stability in Ad hoc Networks
Zhao Yunlong · 2013
In Ad hoc networks,MSWCA,which makes the most comprehensive consideration on clusters' stability,is a typical algorithm of the motion-correlation considered clustering algorithm.Aiming at MSWCA's problem that it only considers intracluster stability,but neglects intercluster stability,a clustering algorithm which enhances clusters' stability(CAECS) was proposed.Based on mobility prediction idea,CAECS considers intracluster stability,intercluster stability and clusters' optimization comprehensively,and it's adapted to different scenarios by adjusting weights.The simulation shows that CAECS outperforms MSWCA on clusters' stability and clusters' maintenance overheads.
