Abstract :
A Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is a wireless network where mobile nodes are connected to each other through infrastructure-less connections. Cluster head is a node within the cluster which acts as a leader node. It maintains the information having list of nodes, path of each and every nodes related to its corresponding cluster. Proposed algorithm forms cluster head which is for energy conservation by considering battery power and neighbor mobile node connectivity level.
