Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) composed of smart sensors interconnected over wireless links are quickly becoming the technology of choice for monitoring and measuring geographically distributed physical, chemical, or biological phenomena in real time. These are deployed for monitoring in a range of critical domains for example health care, military, critical infrastructure. Wireless Sensor Networksare homogeneous or heterogeneous systems. The existing sensor fields communication will not be reduce a traffic issues to compare use of the single and multiple sensor fields. The heterogeneous is shrinking of the network nodes will not be supported to detect the intrusions.A Heterogeneous WSN is more complex as compared to homogeneous WSN and which consists of a number of sensor nodes of different types deployed in a particular area and which are collectively working together to achieve a particular aim. The aim may be any of the physical or environmental condition. For e.g. the wireless sensor network is mainly used in military applications such as in borders for finding out the infiltrations. It is also used in industrial process monitoring and control, machine health monitoring, environment and habitat monitoring, healthcare applications, home automation and traffic control. Wireless sensor networks are vulnerable to many attacks. This paper presents an overview of the intrusion detection in heterogeneous wireless sensor networks.
