A Survey on Energy Efficiency and Cluster Handling in Real Time Wireless Sensor Networks

Wireless networking technology in recent years has seen a thriving development. Wireless sensor networks (WSN) has remote environmental monitoring and target tracking as an important application. This makes sensors smaller and cheaper especially in recent years. These sensors form a network in the wireless interface with which they can communicate with each other. Design of WSN relies heavily on the application such as environment, and it also must consider design objectives, costs, hardware, and factors in which system is constrained. There are so many aspects involved in the wireless sensor networks which need to be readdressed or reviewed for further improvement, generally these are Clustering, Energy saving concepts and Network lifetime. Various researches and journals has been presented so far. In the current paper we are going to enlighten these aspects through survey of research studied that has being done.
