Enhanced Cluster Based Routing Protocol for MANETS
Kartheek Srungaram, M. H. M. Krishna Prasad

TL;DR
This paper introduces Enhanced CBRP, a clustering protocol for MANETs that improves cluster stability and network performance by electing better cluster heads and adding a secondary cluster head to handle failures.
Contribution
It proposes a novel schema that enhances traditional CBRP by using weighted clustering and secondary cluster heads to address cluster stability issues in MANETs.
Findings
Improved cluster stability with secondary cluster heads.
Enhanced network performance through better cluster head election.
Reduced cluster failure rates in MANETs.
Abstract
Mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) are a set of self organized wireless mobile nodes that works without any predefined infrastructure. For routing data in MANETs, the routing protocols relay on mobile wireless nodes. In general, any routing protocol performance suffers i) with resource constraints and ii) due to the mobility of the nodes. Due to existing routing challenges in MANETs clustering based protocols suffers frequently with cluster head failure problem, which degrades the cluster stability. This paper proposes, Enhanced CBRP, a schema to improve the cluster stability and in-turn improves the performance of traditional cluster based routing protocol (CBRP), by electing better cluster head using weighted clustering algorithm and considering some crucial routing challenges. Moreover, proposed protocol suggests a secondary cluster head for each cluster, to increase the stability of…
