IoT Network Model with Multimodal Node Distribution and Data-Collecting Mechanism Using Mobile Clustering Nodes

In this paper, the novel study of an Internet of Things (IoT) network model with multimodal node distribution and a data-collecting mechanism using mobile clustering nodes is presented. The aim of this work is to introduce the problem of organizing the mobile cluster head IoT network with a heterogeneous distribution node in the service area with multimodal distribution nodes. A new method for clustering a heterogeneous network is proposed, which makes it possible to efficiently identify clusters that differ in terms of the density of nodes. This makes it possible to choose the speed of the mobile cluster head in accordance with the density in each cluster. The proposed method uses the Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise (DBSCAN) clustering algorithm. One of the benefits of our proposed model is the increase in the efficiency of using a mobile cluster head. The new solution can be used to organize data collection in the IoT. © 2023 by the authors.
