M/M/1/n+Flush/n Model to Enhance the QoS for Cluster Heads in MANETs

Clustering in MANET is important to achieve scalability in presence of large networks and high mobility in order to maintain the Quality of Services (QoS) of the network. Improving the QoS is the most important and crucial issue in the area of MANET. Keeping this in mind, the research paper presents an M/M/1/n+Flush/n queueing model to perform better parametric results for cluster heads in MANETs. In an effort to make the M/M/1/n+Flush/n queueing model, the paper establishes the expressions for utilization (Uₜ) of the Cluster Head (CH), mean queue length (Lq), mean busy period (Eᵨ), mean waiting time (Q) and average response time (R) of the CH. The analytical results are further verified using MATLAB simulations which reveal better outcomes.
