Abstract: “Wireless sensor networks have made the task of surveillance and detection easy up to greater extent. And mobile wireless sensor network is an advancement of wireless sensor network in a way to fulfil requirements of current surveillance techniques more appropriately. In this survey paper, we have considered an important part of mobile wireless sensor network i.e. clustering. So far proposed and implemented algorithms for clustering in mobile wireless sensor network is discussed here with the consideration of LEACH as a basic algorithm for clustering in wireless sensor network.”
