Abstract :
A Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is a wireless network that consists of mobile nodes without the aid of base stations. Many routing protocols have been proposed for MANETs so that the routing protocol is appropriately selected according to various network environments. Therefore, nodes in heterogeneous MANETs cannot communicate with each other. In this paper, we propose an autonomous clustering-based dynamic network gateway selection for heterogeneous MANETs.
