Abstract

Lifetime enhancement is the key trial in the design of energy restricted WSN. This leads the researchers to explore energy preservation for wireless sensor networks. Due to the energy-constrained nature of WSN, hierarchical energy-efficient routing protocols have gained significant attention. In the recent era, Heterogeneous Wireless Sensor Network Clustering Protocols have drawn tremendous attention due to their energy efficiency. Numerous states of the art heterogeneous clustering protocols have been proposed by the researchers to enhance the lifetime of the network but still, some of the parameters need to be addressed. In this article, a complete overview of the overall clustering mechanism is presented and emphases on the
routing theories for various HWSNs scenarios and covers the state of the art in the area.
