Abstract — Wireless Sensor Networks is one of the most rapidly growing and emerging concept in the scientific domain. It is growing because of its low cost and wide applications. WSN is one of communication tools used in many areas such as in civilians and militaries. WSN is a wireless network consisting of a web of sensor nodes whose basic feature is to sense, compute, communicate and power. Storage, bandwidth, communication capability, limited energy is its main resource constraints. Secure data transmission is an important issue for WSNs. Clustering is a way of enhancing the system performance of WSNs. In this paper, by using the concept of IBS and IBOOS scheme, we study SET protocols for CWSNs, called SET-IBS and SET-IBOOS. SET-IBS depends on the Diffie-Hellman problem. SET-IBOOS relies on discrete logarithm problem and the overhead computation for protocol security is reduced, which is crucial for WSNs. Our survey is based on various aspects of wireless sensor networks, discussing various types of WSNs and their applications, different distributed clustering algorithms used in WSNs and the reliability of routing protocols.
