The evaluation and up gradation of wireless sensor Network (WSN) requires transfer of data from source to destination. Nodes within wireless network are sensors having limited energy associated with them. Nodes collaborating together form clusters. Data transmission takes place from distinct clusters towards base station. Energy of sensors needs to be preserved in order to enhance lifetime of network. This paper presents the overview of various existing techniques used to enhance lifetime of network. The degradation indicated in terms of packet drop ratio for determining network bandwidth. The analysis of some popular protocols has been done in this paper which can be can be used for future enhancements.

WSN, Clusters, bandwidth, Packet drop ratio.
