Abstract :
This article proposes a fundamental modeling and optimization framework for the planning of energy-aware wireless networks. The key idea is that in order to produce energy-efficient network operation, energy awareness should be introduced at the planning stage. Cellular as well as mesh wireless examples are considered.
