An Enhanced Performance Clustering Algorithm for MANET

Clustering of mobile nodes among separate domains has been proposed as an efficient approach to mimic the operation of the fixed infrastructure and manage the resources in multi-hop networks. In this paper, it was analyzed a weight-based clustering algorithm. This algorithm is called Enhanced Performance Clustering Algorithm (EPCA). It selects clusterhead according to its weight computed by combining a set of system parameters and defines new mechanisms as cluster division, merging diminution and extension. EPCA was simulated and tested in real conditions in a campus environment.
