Abstract: |
The subject of
wireless networks has recently gained a lot of attention from research
community to investigate. The well-organized subdivision of a wireless
network into coherent, mostly non-overlapping clusters of physically close
nodes is a significant building block in the design of well-organized upper
layer network functions such as energy saving, routing, stability, coverage and data
aggregation. In our paper, we present a snapshot of different clustering
techniques for wireless networks. We also present comparative analysis of different clustering
mechanisms based on metrics such as load balancing, efficiency of coverage, energyawareness, cluster stability, routing overhead
control, dynamic changes of topology and locality. |
