Abstract :
A mobile ad hoc is a kind of wireless communication network that does not rely on a fixed infrastructure. Clustering of MANET is a vital factor since it forms a virtual backbone of the network. A K-hop weighted dominated clustering algorithm is proposed in this paper. Weights of the nodes are calculated using ranking procedure. Simulation of the results show better clustering is achieved through the proposed algorithm.
