Adaptive clustering routing transition protocol in ad hoc networks
Liu Feng-yu · Journal of Communications · 2008
To solve the expansibility problem of traditional flat routing protocols in ad hoc networks, an adaptive clustering routing transition protocol (ACRT) was proposed, by using the idea of adaptive clustering, routing transition and profits by the merits of passive clustering and gradual clustering. A series of simulations were made for ACRT, AODV, AODV-clustering and PC with fixed scale networks and dynamic scale networks. Simulation results indicate that ACRT has prominent superiority in expansibility and is a correct and efficient routing scheme.
