The consequence of diversity of sensing effectiveness is in the excess of application areas. However, the originality of wireless sensor networks requires extra effective approach for data forwarding and processing. In WSN, the sensor nodes have a finite transmission range, and their refining and storage potential as well as their energy systems are also restricted. Routing protocols for wireless sensor networks are responsible for maintaining the routes in the network and have to establish reliable multi-hop communication under certain situations. In this work, a survey of routing protocols for Wireless Sensor Network and compare their strengths. One of the prime design points for a sensor network is maintenance of the energy available in each sensor node. Expanding network lifetime is critical in wireless sensor networks. Many routing algorithms have been developed in this regard. Out of all these, clustering algorithms have gained a lot of relevance in increasing the network lifetime thereby the efficiency of the nodes in it. Clustering provides an sufficient way for prolonging the lifetime of a wireless sensor network. This work elaborately compares Six renowned routing protocols namely, TEEN, SEP, LEACH, ERP, EAMMH, PEGASIS for several general scenarios, and brief analysis of the simulation results against known metrics with energy and network lifetime being major among them. In this research work the results and observations made from the analyses of results about these protocols are presented. Keywords: sensor networks, Energy, Nodes, Lifetime. 1. INTRODUCTION The aim of routing protocols is to determine of convenient routes that remain on the enterprise network, build routing tables and make routing decisions. There are two elementary routing protocol types specify plentiful different routing protocols defined with those two types. Link state and distance vector protocols comprise the primary types. Distance vector protocols advertise their routing table to all directly connected neighbors at regular frequent intervals using a lot of bandwidth and are slow to converge. When a route becomes unavailable, all router tables must be updated with that new information. The issue is with every router having to communicate that advanced information to its neighbors, it takes a high time for all routers to have a ongoing definite view of the network [1]. 2. METHODOLOGIES Routing protocols in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) indicate on data dissemination, limited battery power and bandwidth constraints in order to facilitate efficient working of the network, thereby increasing the lifetime of the network. LEACH (Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy) is designed for sensor networks where an end-user wants to remotely monitor the environment. In such a situation, the data from the individual nodes must be sent to a central base station, often located far from the sensor network, through which the end-user can access the data. There are several desirable properties for protocols on these networks:  Use 100's - 1000's of nodes  Maximize system lifetime  Maximize network coverage  Use uniform, battery-operated nodes [2] Conventional network protocols, such as direct transmission, minimum transmission energy, multi-hop routing, and clustering all have drawbacks that don't allow them to achieve all the desirable properties. LEACH includes distributed cluster formation, local processing to reduce global communication, and randomized rotation of the cluster-heads. Together, these features allow LEACH to achieve the desired properties. Initial simulations show that LEACH is an energy-efficient protocol that extends system lifetime [2].
