Abstract

Cluster-Based Routing Protocol (CBRP) is popular and proven for energy efficiency in Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET). CBRP protocol divides the complete network into a number of clusters. Each cluster contains Cluster Head (CH) which maintains the cluster formation. Existence of CH improves routing performance in terms of reduction in routing overhead and power consumption. However, due to the mobility of the network, movement of the CH and cluster members, re-clustering is required and this increases overhead in the formation of clusters. The stability of the CH is an important factor for the stability of the cluster. Hence CH selection should be done efficiently such that the CH survives for a longer time. Existing CH selection algorithms use weight based approach which uses parameters like battery power, mobility, residual energy, and node degree to calculate the weight. Of all these parameters, mobility is an important factor in MANET and it has to be given more importance. Hence this paper proposes a Modified Energy-Efficient Stable Clustering (MEESC) algorithm in which node mobility is given more importance in weight calculation for the selection of CH. The proposed algorithm is simulated in NS3 and found to give better results in CH selection in terms of number of clusters formed and lifetime of the cluster head.
