Abstract

A MANET is a group of self-governing mobile nodes which can interact over relative bandwidth and power constrained wireless links. As the nodes mobility are high so the network topology changes faster and dynamically. In MANET there is no architecture. Routing functionality such as route finding, topology finding, and message delivery from source to destination are performed by node itself as there is no centralized network. In this paper we will study various weighted clustering algorithm which boosts the ability of network and decreases the routing overheads in order to bring more resourceful and effective routing in MANET .There are basically two mechanisms in every clustering algorithm (1)Cluster Formation (2)Cluster Maintenance. In cluster formation, cluster heads are nominated among the node available in a network to form the hierarchal network. In cluster maintenance, a exclusive mechanism is needed so that cluster head can keep up all the changes performed in a network when any cluster changes occurred due to mobility of nodes.
