A Survey of Weight-Based Clustering Algorithms in MANET

Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2013, Vol 9, Issue 6

Abstract

 As MANETs haven't any mounted infrastructure, all messages have to be routed through the nodes within the network. several clustering and routing algorithms are developed for MANETs. Moreover, most of the prevailing routing algorithms don't utilize the potency that may be obtained by clustering a network. clustering method involves in grouping network nodes and facilitates in reducing the overhead messages that  help in establishing routes. Moreover, there's a trade-off between providing security and preserving the ability  of a node. In current approaches, clustering and routing algorithms are designed specifically for either  providing security or protective power. It's terribly tough to boost each security and minimize power consumption, as usually one is achieved at the expense of the opposite. In this paper we survey about different  weight based clustering algorithms designed so far.
