Wireless Sensor network (WSN) is the emerging
technology used for various applications such as environmental
monitoring, health monitoring and military applications. It
consist a group of small and low cost sensor nodes having
sensing, processing, communication and power unit. But WSN
provides limited battery power and communication range to the
sensor nodes. In order to extend the lifetime of sensor nodes,
many energy aware routing protocols are proposed. Here, a
review on the hierarchical based routing protocols in WSN is
carried out.

One of the major challenges in a wireless sensor network
is to energy efficiency. In order to manage the energy
consumption of sensor nodes so many routing protocols
are proposed. This paper discuss and compare some
hierarchical based routing protocols based on aggregation
strategy, load balance and energy efficiency.
