Till this date, the Big Data is very important emerging technology. The wireless sensor network is the very popular source of the big data in recent years and further. The wireless sensor network has lots of challenges and limitations. The limitations can categorize by energy, security, performance, memory, computation and so on. The energy plays a vital role in wireless sensor networks. The wireless sensor networks has group of more number of small sensor nodes. Each sensor nodes equipped with limited batteries. Those batteries cannot rechargeable and also replaceable. So the sensor nodes may die when it consumes more energy to transmit the data. So some algorithms should be implement for avoid the challenges and limitations of the wireless sensor network. That algorithm should not affect another parameter’s efficiency. Other parameters like security, delay, performance are also to be provided and improve efficiency in WSN. Single algorithm is not enough to improve overall performance in WSN. In order to avoid that, combined algorithm should be implementing and improve efficiency. In this area of research, some combined algorithms are focused and explained. © Research India Publications.
