Optimizing MANETs Network Lifetime Using a Proactive Clustering Algorithm

In wireless sensor networks that consist of a number power constrained nodes, the foremost challenges are limited energy and system lifetime. Therefore, designing efficient routing protocols, which prolong network lifetime, is one most critical issues. This paper evaluated several clustering algorithms, namely: Highest Degree Clustering Algorithm (HDCA), Lowest Identifier (LIDCA) under three metrics: throughput, Packets Delivered Ratio Factor (PDR) One important facing Mobile Ad hoc Networks saving led to longer why we proposed new algorithm considered be more it compared algorithms mentioned above. Our experiment occurrences showed supplied relatively better lifetime distribution for nodes.
