Abstract :
Power Line Communication (PLC) networks have some characters, such as unpredictable physical topology and time-varying channel. In order to enhance the reliability of PLC networks, cluster-based dynamic routing algorithm is proposed and thoroughly discussed in this paper. This algorithm uses the ideology of minimum identification (ID) clustering algorithm to establish routing and maintain effective routing on-demand. It can reduce the routing overhead to ensure the reliability and stability of the communication routing, and thus enhance the overall performance and efficiency of power line communication network. Simulation result shows that the algorithm has certain validity.
