Abstract
In mobile-AdHoc networks (MANETs), many applications need the support of layer-structure. Clustering solution is the most widely used layer-structure and the choosing of clusterheads is the key problem of all. Traditional ways of clustering lack of instructions of trust mechanisms. This paper presents a maximum-objective-trust-based clustering solution (MOTBCS), which aims at the opinion of maximum stable links and energy viewpoint and gives nodes their objective trust estimation. This solution can be better suitable for the realistic working environments for MANETs. We make necessary simulations for our design and results show that MOTBCS can generate more stable clustering groups. It also has less communication costs and better efficiency than other clustering algorithms.
