    Abstract :

    Energy efficiency, storage capacity and computing power are major considerations while designing wireless sensor network. Wireless sensor networks use battery-operated computing and sensing devices. Most sensor network applications require energy autonomy for the complete lifetime of the node, which may span up to several years. There are many routing protocols like: location based, multipath, data centric, mobility based, hierarchical routing, hybrid routing etc. Clustering is used to prolong the lifetime of the wireless sensor networks. Clustering is the process where sensing area is divided in groups to balance the energy level of sensor nodes known as clusters. In this paper presents the study of different energy efficient routing protocols of wireless sensor networks and compared them on various parameters
