Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) comprises of sensor node. Such networks have enormous application in environmental observation, disaster management, security and defence, etc. Wireless sensor nodes are relatively smaller in size; contain restricted processing capability and extremely less battery life. This limitation of less battery life makes the sensor network vulnerable to failure. Data aggregation is an important method in WSNs. Data aggregation helps in minimizing the energy utilization by removing redundancy. Here we have studied about data aggregation as well as summarized different scheme employed in this process.
