An approach for resilient hierarchical routing in mobile networks

Abstract:

We show a cluster based routing protocol, in order to improve the convergence of the clusters and the network it is proposed to use a backup cluster head. A event discrete simulator is used for the implementation and the simulation of a hierarchical routing protocol called the Backup Cluster Head Protocol (BCHP). Finally it is shown that the BCHP protocol improves the convergence, availability and resiliency of the network through a comparative analysis with the Ad Hoc On Demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol and Cluster Based Routing Protocol (CBRP).
