Development of a Clustering Algorithm in MANET Networks and Implementation of a Method for Grouping Devices

This paper examines the main methods of grouping and clustering in MANET networks, and also analyzes existing solutions in the field of devices for launching self-organizing networks with the implementation of sensors. The paper presents an approach for implementing optimal methods for grouping devices and implementing routing protocols. The proposed method allows you to group devices with a choice of parameters that can be used at the routing protocol level. The main research is based on the use of progressive clustering methods, while the protocol implementation of grouping methods is considered, which is the main problem in the implementation of this kind of solutions.
