Many duty cycling MAC protocols exploit preamble sampling technique to improve the energy efficiency. In this technique, all the devices periodically listen to the medium for a short duration and then go back to sleep if medium is found idle. When a device wants to send data it transmits a long preamble followed by data bits. When the receiver wakes up and detects the preamble it stays awake until...
Small cell base stations (BSs) that form an overlay layer on the existing macrocell network offer tremendous potential in terms of satisfying high data rate traffic requirements and enabling breakthrough services. However; small cell deployments can pose negative energy-efficiency implications if not equipped with advanced power saving mechanisms. In this work, we address this issue and propose algorithms...
We consider the problem of multicasting from a single source to a set of destinations. We assume that the source cannot reach the destinations directly, but must forward its traffic through a set of relays. Under the performance objective of maximizing the common amount of information (number of bits) that the source sends to all destinations per Joule of the total energy spent, we wish to obtain...
Recent research studies on green cellular networking indicate that most of the traffic is serviced by a few cell sites while the rest of the cells remain under-utilized, contributing to significant energy consumption levels. Previous proposals suggest turning off Base Stations (BSs) during low utilization periods to save energy by allowing neighboring cells to increase their coverage to provide the...
Energy efficiency becomes evergreen than ever before. Over the last few years a significant research in wireless communications, aiming to enhance communications efficiency subject to constraint of power consumption, has given rise to optimization techniques of power control and management in wireless networks. Although the initial target was the utilization of resources in order to exploit communications...
