“…The algorithms presented in [11] are suited for the possibility of reliable data sharing and communication between highly mobile vehicles, depending on the amount of reliable mobility information available in the targeted system. THPM [12] is the refinement of [13] and extension of PHMANET [11]. THPM offers clustering algorithm for two hop neighbor for PHMANET.…”

The scalability issue is essential to gain commercial success in MANET. However, there are some existing constraints such as low bandwidth, node mobility, energy consumption, and the broadcast nature of wireless communication that make the network complex to maintain. Furthermore, as the network size increases, communication costs may consume a large proportion of the bandwidth. Other parameters such as node mobility, node density, and traffic load can also impair network scalability. In this research paper, we proposed a new algorithm, K-hop clustering scheme for Pseudolinear MANET (KHPM) where cluster topology remains stable in terms of Khop and more dense network. The strategy used stability metric and Doppler Value (DV) between nodes, which exchanged packets obtained by Doppler shift. A node's smaller DV indicates lower mobility with higher stability. The proposed technique has been analysis hypothetically, which shows that the proposed algorithm is able to consider mobility as a key feature compared to existing SKCA method. In addition, the number of hops of a cluster is twice in KHPM compared to existing THPM technique. General TermsAd hoc wireless network, Clustering.

In this article, a new infrastructure of a combined Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) and Dedicated Short-Range Communications (DSRC) link layer is proposed with the purpose of reducing simultaneous WiMAX connections. WiMAX offers wide area connectivity of vehicles to ground-based base stations, while DSRC offers relatively shorter communication that allows for vehicles in proximity of each other to communicate directly. The proposed design uses the fact that WiMAX amendments support the concept of a WiMAX relay node, and substitutes the WiMAX relay nodes with nodes that are capable of both WiMAX and DSRC communications. This change allows for the number of WiMAX connections to be concentrated while supporting more subscribing users via WiMAX tunnelled over DSRC relay. The focus of this design is on the use case of providing broadband Internet access to a large number of DSRC capable vehicles in a WiMAX served region. The design uses DSRC as a WiMAX tunnel, but with changes to the WiMAX protocol, specifically network entry and handover processes are redesigned to have different behaviour only when operating over DSRC. Network entry over DSRC modifications are described and illustrated with comparison to existing WiMAX standards. Handover process facilitated over both WiMAX and DSRC layers are described, illustrated and are also standard compliant. Unified modeling language is used to assist with the explanations of the components to improve understanding of the design in relation to existing WiMAX standards. In addition to standard WiMAX operability, the design can also support WiMAX data subscription using a software-defined WiMAX radio via DSRC relay connectivity. This proposed design improves WiMAX communication by reducing the number of WiMAX connections between vehicles. We plotted the throughput of various cluster sizes of WiMAX only mobile relay, versus our proposed DSRC-enabled WiMAX mobile relay in order to show the efficiency benefit of our design. We also provide a simulated curve of percentage improvement efficiency for varying amount of active users. We show that as the total number of users in the system increases, our proposed system significantly improves the overall system efficiency, especially in heavily congested traffic.

“…In [17], the clustering problem is formulated into an Integer Linear Programming (ILP) problem and a heuristic is proposed to generate stable clusters. K-clustering [18][19][20][21][22][23] is another class of clustering method in which each node is either cluster head or is at most k hops away from its cluster head. Thus, the size of clusters can be controlled.…”

Routing in mobile ad hoc network is an ever demanding research area. The aim of this research work is to design and develop QoS aware reliable cluster based routing protocol (QoS-RCBRP) for heterogeneous mobile ad hoc networks. From the dense number of literatures it has been examined that when the mobility of nodes increases, the performance of several clustering routing protocols gets decreased. Hence the intended routing protocol QoS-RCBRP makes use of mobile backbone to lessen the impact of node mobility. The proposed routing mechanism gets rid of the delay caused by cluster head selection and starts the mobile nodes to initialize the communication instantly after joining the cluster. The QoS metrics packet delivery ratio, delay and throughput are taken into account for comparing the proposed QoS-RCBRP with Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol. From dense simulation results it can be observed that the proposed protocol attains better performance in terms of reduced delay, increased throughput and packet delivery ratio.
