  Abstract

In recent years, the Cognitive Radio(CR) technology has been actively researched in the domain of mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs). Especially, cluster-based networking mechanisms were introduced for efficient channel management in CR-MANET environments. However, since these schemes form a cluster considering only the available channel information, the characteristics of MANET often lead to frequent reconfiguration of the cluster, resulting in inefficient communication and significant overhead for network maintenance. To resolve the problem, in this paper, we propose a new clustering scheme in which a cluster is formed based on 1) the number of available channels, 2) topological information, and 3) relative mobility. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme reduces the number of cluster re-clustering and the number of hops in routing path for cluster communication, compared to the existing schemes.
