In this paper, by combining the schemes of Low Power Idle (LPI) and Adaptive Link Rate (ALR), we propose a hybrid energy saving strategy for IEEE 802.3az energy-efficient Ethernet (EEE). In this hybrid energy saving strategy, links will transfer to the sleep mode from the active mode as soon as there are no packets ready for transmission. Namely, the link will become idle once the output buffer becomes...
