Don ’ t listen , talk : A comparative study of transmit and receive power for low power radios
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper we investigate the energy consumption of a low power radio device in its three modes of operation: transmission, reception and idle. We identify these modes of operation from the traces of the energy consumption of the device by modifying the device’s firmware to include and exclude certain events. We present energy consumption measurements two orders of magnitude lower than an 802.11 device and question whether the use of 802.11 figures in simulations of low power radio systems is realistic. Contrary to 802.11 models, we show Prx > Ptx > Pidle.

Assessment of the Characteristics of MRI Coils in Terms of RF Non-Homogeneity Using Routine Spin Echo Sequences
Introduction: One of the major causes of image non-uniformity in MRI is due to the existence of non-homogeneity in RF receive and transmit. This can be the most effective source of error in quantitative studies in MRI imaging. Part of this non-homogeneity demonstrates the characteristics of RF coil and part of it is due to the interaction of RF field with the material being imaged...
متن کاملHistological Changes of Diaphyse of Tibia and its Central Medulary Chanal Follwing Low-Power Laser Irradiation in Rabbit
Purpose: The reaction of compact bone of diaphyse of tibia and it's bone marrow to low power laser radiation was investigated. Materials and Methods: Ten adult male rabbits were divided randomly into experimental and control groups. Low-power He-Ne laser (36 J/cm2) were radiated into a fixed point of tibia daily for 14 consequative days. Rabbits of control group did not receive laser. At the e...
متن کاملNot Up for Discussion: Applying Lukes’ Power Model to the Study of Health System Corruption; Comment on “We Need to Talk About Corruption in Health Systems”
This companion paper suggests the potential benefits of applying Steven Lukes’ dimensions of power model to the study of corruption in health systems. Lukes’ model sets out three “faces of power” classified by their influence on political discourse, resulting in overt, covert and latent discussion of issues depending on the degree of their alignment with the agenda of d...

Background: Acupuncture is an indispensable part of traditional Chinese medicine for relief of pain. The purpose of this study was the immediate & latent of low power LASER Ga-Al-As irradiation applied to acupuncture points on experimental pain threshold. Methods: This quasi-experimental study was conducted on seventy adult women ranging from 20 to 40 years old assigned randomly into two groups...
متن کاملEstimation of Maximum Interference-Free Transmit Power Level for Opportunistic Spectrum Access
We consider a scenario in which frequency agile radios opportunistically share a fixed spectrum resource with a set of primary nodes. We develop a collaborative scheme for a group of frequency agile radios to estimate the maximum power at which they can transmit on a given frequency channel, without causing harmful interference to the primary receivers. The proposed scheme relies on signal stre...
