Optimization of Clustering Algorithm in Ad Hoc Network

Article Preview

Abstract:

According to the dynamic characteristics of ad hoc network topology, this paper optimizes the clustering algorithm using node energy consumption and the relative connectivity as the factors of weights. Simulation results show the optimized weighted clustering algorithm (OWCA) get better performance than other algorithm, the cluster heads are distributed evenly, the cluster structure becomes more reasonable and stable.
