Table 1 Summary of different categories of cluster-based routing protocols and their issues

Classification of Clustering schemes on the basis of QOS	Names of Protocols	Issues
Energy-Aware Clustering	EPAC [12], SYN [9], E-PSO [6]	High control overhead and delay.
Location/Connectivity-based Clustering	KCLC [19], KCMBC [19], DDVC [20],DDLC [20]	Throughput reduces when the node number increases in the clusters.
Mobility-based Clustering	MBHC [11], MPBC [16], MBDH [21]	Energy not conserved.
Weighted metric Clustering	WBDC [13], WCA [17], IWCA [22]	Complexity and clustering process starts late.
