Wireless Technologies are very useful due to their use. Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) has become an essential technology in field of research In MANET, Clustering is an important research area, it offers several advantages like it improves stability and decrees the overhead of the network that increases the efficiency of the network. Clustering increases system capacity by reusing available resources. This Survey paper analyzes number of Cluster head Selection Techniques that are widely used for partitioning mobile host into distinct virtual groups. Each Clustering Technique uses various parameters for selecting Cluster head in cluster. Cluster head is work as leader in cluster and maintain the whole network information which decreases the computation cost and routing overhead of the network in MANET. Each technique is used on the bases of their parameters. Each approach has its own pros and cons.
