Wireless communication has gained the exponential growth in the modern era; the aspiration for connectivity has led to tremendous research and experiment in the area of wireless sensor network. Carve for wireless connectivity and recent advances in material science, semiconductor and networking is the driving force for the birth of wireless sensor network. Wireless Sensor Networks consists of a large number of small computers or the sensor nodes that can sense the surroundings, process, store, and transmit the information wirelessly. These networks have innumerable applications from monitoring the smart agriculture to the comfort of your own home. Wireless sensor networks have gained attention in recent years. In this paper the technical issue, challenges \& design metric of wireless sensor network have been discussed.
