Power Optimized MAC Protocol in Mobile Ad-hoc Network’s
نویسنده
چکیده
Wireless hosts are usually powered by batteries which provide a limited amount of energy. Therefore, techniques to reduce energy consumption are of interest. One way to conserve energy is to use power saving mechanisms. Power saving mechanisms allows a node to enter a doze state by powering off its wireless network interface when deemed reasonable. Another alternative is to use power control schemes which suitably vary transmit power to reduce energy consumption. In addition to providing energy saving, power control can potentially be used to improve spatial reuse of the wireless channel.

Improving Quality of Service Routing in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks Using OLSR
Mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) are constructed by mobile nodes without access point. Since MANET has certain constraints, including power shortages, an unstable wireless environment and node mobility, more power-efficient and reliable routing protocols are needed. The OLSR protocol is an optimization of the classical link state algorithm. OLSR introduces an interesting concept, the multipoint r...

This research aims at improving the throughput in distributed cooperative wireless ad-hoc networks by use of stations equipped with a new MAC. The main focus of this research is to show that several existing schemes can degrade network throughput and can result in higher energy consumption than when using IEEE 802.11 without power control. This work proposes a new power controlled MAC protocol ...
