Abstract

The objective of the paper is to analyze the performance of virtual cluster architectures in wireless networks. The key issues in wireless domain are flooding, connectivity, and power management. These issues arise during the path finding and maintenance between source and destination nodes. To overcome these issues three approaches are introduced in this paper namely; fusion virtual structure, link quality connected dominating set and cluster backbone approach. These approaches follow the distributed localized computations for virtual cluster constructions and focus on fundamental connectivity problems and are partially involved in power saving process of individual nodes. The proposed methods are analyzed in terms of backbone size, packet delivery ratio and normalized routing overhead and the results are witnessed by simulation.
