Abstract :
Topology control is one of the most important parts of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) which is the current hotspot of research and application. Comparing with the other traditional wireless networks, this paper firstly summarizes the specialties of typic WSNs, and then studies the recent representative clustering algorithms in this area by summing up their characteristics and application areas, posting their limitations, and pointing out the future trend of the Clustering Arithmetic of WSNs emphatically.
