Abstract
The Routing Approaches in Mobile Ad-hoc Network have almost entered the saturated arena. But still there are available options of perfection in this meadow. The task of improving the clustering technique is one of the fields which is under rated as a research topic for further improvement of routing. Clustering based MANET routing protocols, which are popular in terms of efficiency, simplicity and usability mostly use circular based clustering techniques. And the election of cluster head is done through the use conventional approaches. This particular paper is mainly focused to launch a new-fangled clustering technique through which it is possible to improve the routing performance of existing protocols. Another important aspect of this paper is to provide a cluster head selection algorithm which can effectively maintain the clusters and provides more stability. Proposed clustering idea is useful for geographically related nodes effectively in different turf of routing. To maintain the clusters and their stability, it provides a new idea to select cluster head within the cluster, also the election of secondary cluster head for avoiding further election immediately after the unavailability of primary cluster head. This idea is evaluated in network simulator and it outperforms the existing clustering techniques.
