Special Session: Energy-Efficient Wireless Communication

Energy consumption in wireless networks is an important design consideration due to the limited battery capacity of mobile devices. Advances in hardware and software technologies have not been matched by corresponding improvements in battery technologies. Since wireless communication is a major contributor to the total energy consumption on many battery-powered mobile devices, the success of new wireless technologies is contingent on their power-conservation techniques. It is important to understand and characterize the energy-consumption behaviors of the communication components in mobile devices. Furthermore, considerable research has been devoted to low-power design of the entire network protocol stack of wireless networks, in an effort to enhance energy efficiency. The goal of this special session is to bring together researchers in the field of energy-efficient wireless communications and networks, and provide a forum for the state-of-the-art research and development.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, power-conservation techniques on the following aspects of wireless computing:

-Power-aware network architectures -Power management and control -Energy consumption modeling -Antennas and RF subsystems -Coding and modulation -Media access control -Routing and Mobile IP -Transport protocols -Middleware and applications -Wireless sensor networks -Heterogeneous (wired/wireless) networks
