—Power-saving is a critical issue for almost all kinds of portable devices. In this paper, we consider the design of power-saving protocols for mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) th...
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...
— This paper presents an optimization of PSM to improve its energy conservation. According to PSM, time is divided into beacon intervals. At the beginning of each beacon interval...
