Abstract: Wireless sensor network is energy constraint network. The lifetime of a network is defined by the life of first specified percentage of dying nodes. Load balancing is a method to equalize energy consumption of all nodes and this way all nodes will degrade together. By load balancing, the lifetime of the network does not depend only on the life of weak node but depends on the life all nodes in the network which helps to increase the life of the network. In this paper, clustering algorithm that based on uniform energy uses is examined for wireless sensor networks. Uniform energy uses can extend the lifetime of a sensor network by reducing centralized load. It also increase network scalability. Wireless sensor network with the different energy levels nodes can prolong the lifetime of the network and also its reliability. We discuss the improvement to be made for future proposed uniform energy consumption/load balancing schemes. This paper provided the reader with the basis for research in load balancing schemes for wireless sensor networks.
