Abstract

This paper describes a network design strategy that focuses on energy conservation. This position-based network protocol is optimized for minimum energy consumption in wireless networks that support peer-to-peer communication. Given any number of randomly deployed communication nodes over an area, we show that a simple local optimization scheme executed at each node guarantees strong connectivity of the entire network and attains the global minimum energy solution for both stationary and mobile networks
