Abstract
Numerous papers that study ad hoc networks have used a hierarchical network structure to enhance scalability. The hierarchical structure typically consists of a number of clusters, each of which has its own clusterhead that maintains information. Clusterheads often need to exchange information among themselves in order to maintain information, and for such cases, a mechanism is needed to efficiently deliver information from one clusterhead to another. Here, we proposed a new distributed algorithm in which every node independently makes the decision about whether or not it forwards a received message. We used a simulation to demonstrate that the algorithm developed for this study is a considerable improvement over the control overhead algorithm.
