ABSTRACT: Based on the analysis of the existing classic
clustering routing algorithm HEED, this paper proposes an efficient dynamic
clustering routing algorithm ED-HEED. In the cluster selection process, in
order to optimize the network topology and select more proper nodes as the
cluster head, the proposed clustering algorithm considers the shortest path prediction
of the node to the destination sink and the congestion situation. In the data
transmission procedure, the high-efficiency CEDOR opportunistic routing
algorithm is applied into the ED-HEED as the data transmission mode between
cluster headers. A novel adaptive dynamic clustering mechanism is also
considered into the algorithm, as well as the data redundancy and security
control. Our Simulation demonstrates that the ED-HEED algorithm can reduce the
energy consumption, prolong the network life and keep the security and
availability of the network compared with the HEED algorithm.
