چکیده
Wireless sensor network is an emerging field leading to the various applications worldwide. Small nodes being used are capable enough to sensing, computation, collection and forwarding the data to the Base Station. Battery source is one of the most prominent concerning issue in making the sensor network running for performing various assigned tasks. This battery source has all business with the routing strategies being employed. Here in this paper the routing protocol LEACH (Low-Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy) is being reviewed to explore the advancements in clustering strategies. LEACH is being the first clustering protocol which selects the cluster head in each round and thereby balancing the energy consumption throughout the network. The work in the paper focus to discuss various variants of LEACH aiming to enhance the network life-time.
