Abstract :
Energy efficiency is crucial for wireless networks due to the limited battery life of mobile terminals. Power conservation techniques are commonly used in the hardware design of such systems. In addition, a low-pouter design of the entire protocol stack of wireless systems can significantly enhance energy efficiency and network utilization. This paper discusses recent advances and contributes novel ideas on power adaptive design of networking protocols
