  • Abstract:
  • In cluster-based methods, nodes are clustered into clusters, where a resourceful sensor node is designated as a CH while in grid-based method the network is scattered into limited virtual grids usually performed by the base station. In Wireless Sensor Networks, clustering technique is required to make sensor networks communicate efficiently. This paper gives summary on few clustering algorithms and discovers advantages and disadvantages associated with each. Hierarchical schemes are generally characterized as cluster-based and grid-based methods. Clustering plays necessary role in power optimization. In recent periods, enormous researches had been done in zone of networking. It is one of the most vital notions in WSN.
