Stable Clusterhead Selection Algorithm for Ad Hoc Networks

چکیده
This paper provides a clusterhead review of clusterhead selection algorithm in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) and proposes a Stable Clusterhead Selection Algorithm for ad hoc networks (SCSA). The algorithm constructs a stable clusterhead with the help of reducing the number of clusterhead reconstruction. It selects the nodes which have the stability to be the clusterheaders. The results of simulation show that, with the proposed SCSA clusterhead selection algorithm, the average number of clusterheads, the frequency of clusterhead changes, the frequency of cluster member changes, and cluster lifetime can be improved in most of cases. It is an available approach to clusterhead decision.

متن کاملA Low Control Overhead Cluster Maintenance Scheme for Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANETs)
Clustering is an important research area for mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) as it increases the capacity of network, reduces the routing overhead and makes the network more scalable in the presence of both high mobility and a large number of mobile nodes. In clustering the clusterhead manage and store recent routing information. However the frequent change of clusterhead leads to loss of routi...
متن کاملFormation and Management in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks
This article proposes a scenario-based algorithm for cluster formation and management in mobile ad hoc networks. Depending on the application a centralized or distributed algorithm based on (k, r) −Dominating Set is used for the selection of clusterheads and gateway nodes. Here k is the minimum number of clusterheads per node in the network and r is the maximum number of hops between the node a...
متن کاملA Mobility Based Metric for Clustering in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks
This paper presents a novel mobility metric for mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) that is based on the ratio between the received power levels of successive transmissions measured at any node from all its neighboring nodes. This mobility metric is subsequently used as a basis for cluster formation which can be used for improving the scalability of services such as routing in such networks. We prop...
متن کاملA New Hybrid Routing Algorithm based on Genetic Algorithm and Simulated Annealing for Vehicular Ad hoc Networks
In recent years, Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANET) as an emerging technology have tried to reduce road damage and car accidents through intelligent traffic controlling. In these networks, the rapid movement of vehicles, topology dynamics, and the limitations of network resources engender critical challenges in the routing process. Therefore, providing a stable and reliable routing algorithm is ...
