Abstract:

In order to solve the poor network stability problem and the short survival issue which is caused by the separation between trust layered structure and physical clustered structure, a mobile Ad hoc networks (MANET) clustering model which based on trust measurement was proposed. The distance measurement of intuitionistic fuzzy sets were researched, and a trust measurement which using intuitionistic fuzzy set theory was proposed. A clustering algorithm based on trust measurement was proposed via analyzing the stability and energy dissipation of the clustered structure in extending HELLO message form. The simulation results show that the proposed model has an advantage in head nodes changing rate, the clustered structure member energy dissipation, as well as, MANET survival time.

Key words: intuitionistic fuzzy set, network clustering, trust, mobile Ad hoc networks
