摘要：Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) has grown vastly in the past few years and pointing out the crucial need for scalable and energy efficient network. Routing in WSN is challenging task because of limited resources of available energy and processing power. On the basis of network structure, routing protocol in WSN can be classified into two different categories such as flat routing and cluster-based or hierarchical routing. In literature review, researchers proposed a number of routing protocols in WSN. In which cluster-based routing protocols shows better performance as compare to other routing protocols. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to provide a review on some efficient cluster-based routing protocols with advantages and limitations.
