Abstract

This paper describes dynamic structured routing schema for mobile users in a hostile, noisy environment. It is difficult to maintain a structured routing especially for large ad hoc networks due to dynamically changing configuration of the Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET). This paper describes a new approach to the cluster head election. The proposed method is based on the election of a head node for a cluster depending on the status of nodes and the cluster itself. The goal is to predict a location of the cluster head based on a guaranteed estimation of mobile users' current locations. Guaranteed estimation, also known as a bounded-error estimation, allows construction of the information set of state or parameter vectors that are compatible with the measured data for dynamic systems with unknown, but bounded errors and system inputs. The new approach is based on polygonal approximations of systems' information sets.
