Wireless Sensor Network is an evolving technology which has gained massive attention in the past few years. Researchers are focusing on designing the wireless sensors more and more intelligent and efficient to make our life extremely comfortable and luxurious. Wireless Sensor Networks are used in bridge monitoring, smart agriculture, health care monitoring, landslide detection, biodiversity mapping, etc. Coverage holes are one of the key problems which occur in the Wireless Sensor Network accidentally and they cannot be neglected. The coverage holes appear in the sensing field due to poor instalment, node failure, battery depletion, etc. In this paper, detection and restoration method based on Hybrid Wireless Sensor Networks and Static Wireless Sensor Networks are discussed. Further, we have analysed the performances of these networks using Unequal Clustering and Connected Graphand Novel Energy Efficient Clustering Protocol techniques. The simulation results revealed that for Hybrid Wireless Sensor Networks, Unequal Clustering and Connected Graph protocol is best suitable and for Static Wireless Sensor Networks, Novel Energy Efficient Clustering Protocoltechnique will be preferred.
