A Clustering Algorithm to Provide Interoperability to Local Area Wireless Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a simple algorithm that allows mobile nodes to autonomously create clusters to minimize the power consumption. We then provide the routing protocol to integrate clusters into the mixed wired/wireless network. We have kept our proposal as simple as possible while also providing it with sufficient robustness and autorecoverability to enable simple and fast node reconfiguration. We analyze the overall protocol architecture and we show that, in general, the CERA implementation allows up to 25% of energy saving while keeping the overhead extremely low.
