and scalable routing protocol for MANETs. Clustering formation algorithm used in CBRP is a variation of simple lowest-ID algorithm in which the node with a lowest ID among its neighbors is elected as the Cluster head. Neglecting mobility and energy...

-head is one of the weakness points of this protocol. In this paper the cluster formation algorithm is introduced, that uses the relative mobility metric, the residual energy and connectivity degree. After forming the cluster, whenever the cluster-head's energy...
