Abstract

             is an approach applied in mobile ad hoc networks to organize the hosts in groups called . The paper focuses on implementing a Clustering technique that conserves , provides  and keeps the and using  by setting for different parameters in dynamic ad hoc environment of uncontrolled movement of nodes, low bandwidth of wireless channel and energy limited nodes. The mechanism uses pools of Primary and Secondary cluster heads (CHs) to provide uninterrupted communication due to node mobility. The protocol saves network resources by reducing the information exchange amongst the nodes and limiting it to clusters and CHs. The paper includes a case that models different scenarios based on the proposed protocol. Also, characteristic analysis of our clustering scheme with some of the existing algorithms is done which shows the strength of this scheme over others.
