자율성 및 이동성 갖는 네트워크 구조의 하나인 MANET(Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks)은 각 node들은 그 특성에 따라서 clustering service을 한다. node의 전송과정 중 path access에 대하여 중요성 또한 강조되고 있다. 일반적인 무선 네트워크 상에서의 node들은 clustering을 하게 되는데 그 과정에서 발생되는 여러 가지 문제점을 가지고 전송이 이루어진다. 모든 node들이 송, 수신상의 전송 범위(Beam forming area)가지고 있으며, 이러한 각 node들의 전송범위 내에 전송이 이루어지는 전통적인 전송기술 mechanism을 찾는다. 이러한 전송상황에서의 송신하는 node와 수신된 node간에 발생되고 있는 중복성의 문제점으로 즉, 상호적용에 의한 네트워크 duplicate(overlapping)이 크게 우려가 되고 있다. 이러한 전송상의 전송 범위 중첩, node간의 packet 간섭현상, packet의 중복수신 및 broadcasting의 storming현상이 나타난다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 상황정보의 속성을 이용한 계층적 상호 head node들의 접근된 위치와 연계되는 전송속도, 보존하고 있는 head node들의 에너지 source value, doppler효과를 통한 head node의 이동방향 등 분석한다. 분석된 방법으로 전송상의 계층적 path가 구성된 경험적 path 속성을 통한 네트워크 connectivity 신뢰성을 극대화 할 뿐만 아니라 네트워크의 전송 범위 duplicate을 사전에 줄일 수 있고 전송망의 최적화를 유지할 수 있는 기법의 하나인 상황정보를 이용한 ad hoc network의 ODDMRP(Ontology Doppler effect-based Dynamic Multicast Routing Protocol) clustering 기법을 제안한다.

In this paper, I propose a new energy efficient clustering scheme to prolong the network lifetime by reducing energy consumption at the sensor node. It is possible that a node determines whether to participate in clustering with certain probability based on local density. This scheme is useful under the environment that sensor nodes are deployed unevenly within the sensing area. By adjusting the probability of participating in clustering dynamically with local density of nodes, the energy consumption of the network is reduced. So, the lifetime of the network is extended. In the region where nodes are densely deployed, it is possible to reduce the energy consumption of the network by limiting the number of node which is participated in clustering with probability which can be adjusted dynamically based on local density of the node. Through computer simulation, it is verified that the proposed scheme is more energy efficient than LEACH protocol under the environment where node are densely located in a specific area.

Many of the recent performance evaluation of clustering schemes in wireless sensor networks considered one sink node operation and fixed sink node location without mentioning about any network application requirements. However, application environments have variable requirements about their networks. In addition, network performance is sufficiently influenced by different sink node location scenarios in multi-hop based network. We also know that sink location can influence to the sensor network performance evaluation because of changed multipath of sensor nodes and changed overload spots in multipath based wireless sensor network environment. Thus, the performance evaluation results are hard to trust because sensor network is easily changed their network connection through their routing algorithms. Therefore, we suggest that these schemes need to evaluate with different sink node location scenarios to show fair evaluation result. Under the results of that, network performance evaluation results are acknowledged by researchers. In this paper, we measured several clustering scheme's performance variations in accordance with various types of sink node location scenarios. As a result, in the case of the clustering scheme that did not consider various types of sink location scenarios, fair evaluation cannot be expected.

Clustering techniques in wireless sensor networks is developed to minimize the energy consumption of node, show the effect that increases the network lifetime. Existing clustering techniques proposed the method that increases the network lifetime equalizing each node's the energy consumption by rotating the role of CH(Cluster Head), but these algorithm did not present the resolution that minimizes the energy consumption of neighboring nodes with sink. In this paper, we propose the clustering algorithm that prolongs the network lifetime by not including a part of nodes in POS(Personal Operating Space) of the sink in a cluster and communicating with sink directly to reduce the energy consumption of CH closed to sink.

The Clustering technology of Energy efficiency wireless sensor network gets the energy efficiency by reducing the number of communication between sensor nodes and sink node. In this paper, First analyzed on the clustering technique of the distributed clustering protocol routing scheme LEACH (Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy) and HEED (Hybrid, Energy-Efficient Distributed Clustering Approach), and based on this, new energy-efficient clustering technique is proposed for the cause the maximum delay of dead nodes and to increase the lifetime of the network. In the proposed method, the cluster head is elect the optimal efficiency node based on the residual energy information of each member node and located information between sink node and cluster node, and elected a node in the cluster head since the data transfer process from the data been sent to the sink node to form a network by sending the energy consumption of individual nodes evenly to increase the network's entire life is the purpose of this study. To verify the performance of the proposed method through simulation and compared with existing clustering techniques. As a result, compared to the existing method of the network life cycle is approximately 5-10% improvement could be confirmed.

A Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is composed of several sensor nodes which are severely restricted to energy and memory. Energy is the lifeblood of sensors and thus energy conservation is a critical necessity of WSN. This paper proposes a clustering algorithm namely Energy Efficient Trustworthy Clustering algorithm (EETCA), which focuses on three phases such as chief node election, chief node recycling process and bi-level trust computation. The chief node election is achieved by Dempster-Shafer theory based on trust. In the second phase, the selected chief node is recycled with respect to the current available energy. The final phase is concerned with the computation of bi-level trust, which is triggered for every time interval. This is to check the trustworthiness of the participating nodes. The nodes below the fixed trust threshold are blocked, so as to ensure trustworthiness. The system consumes lesser energy, as all the nodes behave normally and unwanted energy consumption is completely weeded out. The experimental results of EETCA are satisfactory in terms of reduced energy consumption and prolonged lifetime of the network.

This paper studies the task of embedding nodes with multiple graphs representing multiple information channels, which is useful in a large volume of network clustering tasks. By learning a node using multiple graphs, various characteristics of the node can be represented and embedded stably. Existing studies using multi-channel networks have been conducted by integrating heterogeneous graphs or limiting common nodes appearing in multiple graphs to have similar embeddings. Although these methods effectively represent nodes, it also has limitations by assuming that all networks provide the same amount of information. This paper proposes a method to overcome these limitations; The proposed method gives different weights according to the source graph when embedding nodes; the characteristics of the graph with more important information can be reflected more in the node. To this end, a novel method incorporating a multi-channel gate layer is proposed to weigh more important channels and ignore unnecessary data to embed a node with multiple graphs. Empirical experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed multi-channel-based embedding methods.

Many researches have been performed to increase energy-efficiency in wireless sensor networks. One of primary research topics is about clustering protocols, which are adopted to configure sensor networks in the form of hierarchical structures by grouping sensor nodes into a cluster. However, legacy clustering protocols do not propose detailed methods from the perspective of implementation to determine a cluster's boundary and configure a cluster, and to communicate among clusters. Moreover, many of them involve assumptions inappropriate to apply those to a sensor field. In this paper, we have designed and implemented a new T-Clustering (Top-down Clustering) protocol, which takes into considerations a node's density, a distance between cluster heads, and remained energy of a node all together. Our proposal is a sink-node oriented top-down clustering protocol, and can form uniform clusters throughout the network. Further, it provides re-clustering functions according to the state of a network. In order to verify our protocol's feasibility, we have implemented and experimented T-Clustering protocol on Crossbow's MICAz nodes which are executed on TinyOS 2.0.2.

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) network are a very vibrant research area nowadays. They have many military and civil applications. Limited bandwidth, the high mobility and secure communication of micro UAVs represent their three main problems. In this paper, we try to address these problems by means of secure clustering, and a security clustering algorithm based on integrated trust value for UAVs network is proposed. First, an improved the k-means++ algorithm is presented to determine the optimal number of clusters by the network bandwidth parameter, which ensures the optimal use of network bandwidth. Second, we considered variables representing the link expiration time to improve node clustering, and used the integrated trust value to rapidly detect malicious nodes and establish a head list. Node clustering reduce impact of high mobility and head list enhance the security of clustering algorithm. Finally, combined the remaining energy ratio, relative mobility, and the relative degrees of the nodes to select the best cluster head. The results of a simulation showed that the proposed clustering algorithm incurred a smaller computational load and higher network security.

In the mobile Ad hoc Network(MANET), improving technique for management and control of topology is recognized as an important part of the next generation network. In this paper, we proposed an efficient node life time management of ATICC(Adaptive Time Interval Clustering Control) in Ad-hoc Networks. Ad-hoc Network is a self-configuration network or wireless multi-hop network based on inference topology. This is a method of path routing management node for increasing the network life time through the periodical route alternation. The proposed ATICC algorithm is time interval control technique depended on the use of the battery energy while node management considering the attribute of node and network routing. This can reduce the network traffic of nodes consume energy cost effectively. As a result, it could be improving the network life time by using timing control method in ad-hoc networks.
