Abstract :
In this paper, we investigate the performance of WLAN power save and active mode for collocated WLAN and Bluetooth technologies in the same device. We present a simple, yet accurate, analysis for these mechanisms and also show simulation results. We identify practical issues with these mechanisms and propose an algorithm that reduces overhead in the network from 30% to 10%.
