A Distributed Size-Bounded Multi-Hop Clustering for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

Overview During the last few years there has been a rapid development in Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANETs). To make the operations of a MANET more efficient, one approach is to construct and maintain a control structure. Clustering is such a natural approach to achieving local independent operations and control functions efficiently. This paper proposes a weight-based distributed Size-bounded Multi-hop Clustering (SMC) approach for MANETs. In SMC, clusters are formed and maintained autonomously with only local information. The multi-hop nature and the employment of GroupJoin of SMC reduce the number of changes in case of mobility. SMC bounds cluster size to alleviate clusterheads' workload.
