A Survey on Clustering Approaches to Strengthen the Performance of Wireless Sensor Network

摘要

Wireless sensor networks are used in diverse areas such as battlefields, security, hospitals, universities, etc. It has been used in our everyday lives. Its development is rising day by day. Wireless sensor network includes hundreds to thousands of sensor nodes which aid in gathering various information like temperature, sound, location, etc. Recharging or modifying sensor nodes which might have limited battery power is usually difficult. Therefore, energy conservation is a crucial concern in sustaining the network. Clustering the networks is definitely one of the most common solutions for rendering WSNs energy. In this paper, the various clustering approaches used by wireless sensor networks got to learn and analyzed.
