Power Saving Problem

Battery is a limited resource for portable devices

Battery technology does not progress fast enough

Power saving becomes a critical issue in MANETs, in which devices are all supported by batteries

Transmission Power Control

Tuning transmission energy for higher channel reuse

Example: A is sending to B (based on IEEE 802.11) Can (C, D) and (E, F) join?

A

BCD

F E

No!Yes!

A is sending to B Does C need to stay awake?

A

B

C

No!

It can turn off its radio to save energy!

But it should turn on its radio periodiclally for possible data comm.

1. If the source host is a member, it undergoes MTIM-ACK-RREQ-RREQ message exchange with the cluster head using channel B with transmission range RB.

2. If the cluster head receives no RREP in the same beacon interval, it will rebroadcast the RREQ to all its neighboring cluster heads using channel A with transmission range RA.

3. If a host originates or receives a RREP, it will remains in active mode in channel A. This is prepared for the upcoming data transmission.
