A Clustering based Hybrid Mobility in WPAN

IEEE 802.15.4 is a standard for low rate wireless personal area network (i.e. LR-WPANs) and ZigBee based wireless sensor networks (WSNs). This research presents an analysis of clustering based hybrid mobility in IEEE 802.15.4 PAN. This paper unfolds: (1) performance analysis of IEEE 802.15.4 from little to expansive scale PAN; (2) utilization of clustering mobility on remote node prompts to loss of packets. The hybrid mobility designs (directed and undirected mobility) on a remote node has been researched and claimed to contrast in a variable size network. The simulation results expound the relationship of the arbitrary mobility on remote sensor node with influences over the performance metrics of the network, for example, the end-to-end delay, packet loss, and throughput.
