Quorum-based Power Saving (QPS) protocols have been proposed for ad hoc networks (e.g., IEEE 802.11 ad hoc mode) to increase energy efficiency and prolong the operational time of...
Clustering in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) has shown to be a promising technique to ensure the scalability and efficiency of various communication protocols. Since stations in...
This paper investigates the power mode management problem for an IEEE 802.11-based mobile ad hoc network (MANET) that allows mobile hosts to tune to the power-saving (PS) mode. The...
This paper presents a new algorithm, Extra, for extending the lifetime of ad hoc networks. Extra tries to conserve energy by identifying and switching off nodes that are momentaril...
