    abstract = {Wireless Sensor Network, the name that explodes lot of crucial 
  improvements in growing world technological impact. In WSN, clustering makes 
  the vital role for the deployment of coverage, energy efficient, high localized 
  communication between sensor nodes and its base station. To make the cluster 
  process more effective various protocols are introduced especially in hierarchical 
  protocol like LEACH, SEP, TEEN, PEGASIS protocols. In present scenario, the 
  protocol’s superior process characteristics 
  are combined that produces the hybrid protocol for various purposes like energy 
  conservation, prolonged network life time, improved localized process, reduced 
  no of CH selection. Here, the research that made the survey of these hybrid 
  protocols and their superior characteristics on the basis of no of nodes alive 
  for defined round, stability period, energy dissipation under various conditions. 
  Each protocol made the dominant characteristics in various aspects. Their advantages 
  and their characteristics are discussed with their characteristics.}
