Abstract In Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANET), Quality of Service (QoS) is an important factor that must be analysed for the showing the better performance. The Node Quality-based Clustering Algorithm using Fuzzy-Fruit Fly Optimization for Cluster Head and Gateway Selection (NQCAFFFOCHGS) has the best network performance because it uses the Improved Weighted Clustering Algorithm (IWCA) to cluster the network and the FFO algorithm, which uses fuzzy-based network metrics to select the best CH and entryway. However, the major drawback of the fuzzy system was to appropriately select the membership functions. Also, the network metrics related to the path or link connectivity… More >

Abstract Nowadays, wireless sensor networks play a vital role in our day to day life. Wireless communication is preferred for many sensing applications due its convenience, flexibility and effectiveness. The sensors to sense the environmental factor are versatile and send sensed data to central station wirelessly. The cluster based protocols are provided an optimal solution for enhancing the lifetime of the sensor networks. In this paper, modified K-means ++ algorithm is used to form the cluster and cluster head in an efficient way and the Advanced Energy-Efficient Cluster head selection Algorithm (AEECA) is used to calculate the weighted factor of the… More >
