Abstract :
Clustering of nodes provides an efficient way of handling topology maintenance, managing node movement or reducing overhead in mobile ad hoc networks. In first reference paper, a fast clustering broadcast algorithm based on delay broadcast was presented and it can greatly decrease the cluster establishment time along with the network scale´s extension. In this paper, an improved algorithm was presented to mend its performance.
