Abstract
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are made up of small low-power nodes that are used in different areas like environment monitoring and several military and civilian applications. But due to its small size and limited energy source, energy efficiency is its main area of concern, and many methods have been developed to improve its network lifetime. Game Theory is being used in WSNs to improve the energy efficiency of a network and its lifetime. Game Theory is suitable for such problems as it can be used in node or network level to encourage the decision-making capabilities of WSNs. This survey paper focuses on different types of clustering protocols designed in WSNs using Game Theory to combat the problem of energy efficiency. In particular, we address the approaches by which Game Theory has been used in WSNs to improve its network lifetime including the games used in each protocol.
