Wireless Sensor Network is collection of Sensors. Sensor nodes gather the sensory information and communicating with other nodes in networks. Key Challenges in Wireless Sensor Network is saving energy and extend the network life time. Many clustering protocol are used to manage the data transference in Wireless Sensor Network which are used in two types of network: Homogenous and Heterogeneous. The nodes having the same energy level are called Homogenous Network and the network having different energy level are Heterogeneous Network. Heterogeneous wireless sensor network (WSN) comprises of sensor nodes with distinctive capability, for example, diverse computing power and sensing range. Contrasted with homogeneous WSN, arrangement and topology control are more perplexing in heterogeneous WSN. This paper reviews about different clustering protocols for WSN.
