Abstract
Wireless Ad hoc networks (WANETs) and Mobile Ad hoc networks are infrastructures less network structures made of energy-constrained nodes. These networks need to reduce their energy consumption for longer network lifetime. Clustering nodes play a vital role in WANETs to identify unattended nodes with a limited power source. Cluster Based Routing Protocols (CBRPs) in WANETs can help in minimizing the energy costs during the passing of messages. Many CBRPs have been proposed, but most of the existing approaches have their own limitations due to their Cluster Heads (CHs) workloads. This paper attempts to overcome this limitation by proposing Energy Efficient Weight Based Clustering Algorithm (EEWCA) scheme. In this approach, weights of nodes are assessed using links between nodes in terms of node stability; node neighborhoods; energy consumptions; distance between nodes, node densities, and residual energies. The proposed CH selections framework is based on preventing dead CHs when their power falls below a range by choosing an alternative cluster node as CH. Adaptive particle swarm optimization (APSO) is formulated with Ad hoc On-demand distance vector (AODV) for detecting breakages in links by assessing node energies, densities, and reduced overheads. The proposed EEWCA model is simulated on NS2 simulator and its efficiency is evaluated with different performance metrics by using 20 to 200 nodes in simulations. The proposed APSO–AODV protocol reduces network energy consumption and maximizes the network lifetime significantly.
