Abstract

As Increase in WSN Application there also increased research in WSN. Routing is core Technology in WSN because it is concerned with other technologies like Security, Positioning, Network Discovery, Controlling, Communication, Tasking and Querying. WSN routing Algorithm is different than general routing algorithm. Because, Sensor node is come up with limited amount of battery power which is non-rechargeable or non-replaceable & The Life Cycle of WSN is dependent on the battery power of Sensor node. So, the design of routing algorithm is mainly focused on Energy Consumption of Sensor node. Energy-Efficient Routing is required for WSN. Many protocols like LEACH, PEGASIS, TEEN and ECHERP are used for WSN routing. Some of these algorithms are described & compared in this paper.
