Abstract

The effectiveness various algorithms for the operation energy-saving mechanisms mobile cellular networks is analyzed. Modern scenarios energy saving in Wi-Fi networks are considered, in terms power consumption and delayed delivery frame streams for energy-saving stations. The effectiveness energy saving mechanisms in mobile cellular networks when using Wi-Fi radio interface is studied and analytical expressions for estimating power consumption are obtained.

Wi-Fi researchers are trying hard to extend battery life by optimizing 802.11 power save. The rising number of Wi-Fi devices and IoT devices and daily demands have reduced Station (STA) device power consumption. Better memory management at the Access Point (AP) side is also needed, so that AP can store maximum data to deliver sleepy STA devices. There are three main contributions of this study. The first one focuses on a power-saving mechanism scheme with an adaptive change to Listen Interval (LI) based on the battery status of station devices. The second contribution aims to examine better memory management for the AP buffer to store packets that will in the future deliver power-saving STA when awake. The third contribution, under the implementation of the proposed method, includes Wi-Fi corner cases covered as Beacon frames missed via STA, the keep-alive factor, and the upper-layer time taken to care for and ensure the delivery of unicast/multicast/broadcast data,. The proposed approach introduced 802.11 protocols to share battery status, a protocol to announce proposed features via AP, and a protocol to change LI at runtime. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme performs better than 802.11 power saving in terms of power usage at the STA and access point memory management.

Wireless fidelity (WiFi) networks are deployed in several varied environments all around the World. Usually, the wireless fidelity access points are always on in houses and other small companies. In buildings of large companies and public organizations and in university campuses the number of access points is elevated; they are powered using power over the ethernet and are always on. Consequently, they consume a considerable amount of electric energy. The last versions of the International Electric and Electronic Engineers 802.11 standardized procedures to save energy in a wireless fidelity terminal but not in the access point. We designed a formal method to show when energy can be saved in wireless fidelity access points considering different power supplies for the access point: an electric energy battery and a standard voltage supply. We use an external battery that stores electric energy during an interval of time from a standard voltage supply (Charge period). After that interval (Discharge period), the energy supply for the access point is the external battery. Those intervals of time are repeated sequentially (Charge and Discharge cycles). We verified our formal model implementing a hardware circuit that controls the power supply for the access point. The amount of energy saving for a large number of of access points during a long period of time is considerably high.

While celebrating the 21st year since the very first IEEE 802.11 “legacy” 2 Mbit/s wireless Local Area Network standard, the latest Wi-Fi newborn is today reaching the finish line, topping the remarkable speed of 10 Gbit/s. IEEE 802.11ax was launched in May 2014 with the goal of enhancing throughput-per-area in high-density scenarios. The first 802.11ax draft versions, namely D1.0 and D2.0, were released at the end of 2016 and 2017. Focusing on a more mature version D3.0, in this tutorial paper, we help the reader to smoothly enter into the several major 802.11ax breakthroughs, including a brand new OFDMA-based random access approach as well as novel spatial frequency reuse techniques. In addition, this tutorial will highlight selected significant improvements (including PHY enhancements, MU-MIMO extensions, power saving advances, and so on) which make this standard a very significant step forward with respect to its predecessor 802.11ac.

The increasing interest for ubiquitous networking, and the tremendous popularity gained by IEEE 802.11 Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) in recent years, is leading to very dense deployments where high levels of channel contention may prevent to meet the increasing users' demands. To mitigate the negative effects of channel contention, the Target Wake Time (TWT) mechanism included in the IEEE 802.11ax amendment can have a significant role, as it provides an extremely simple but effective mechanism to schedule transmissions in time. Moreover, in addition to reduce the contention between stations, the use of TWT may also contribute to take full advantage of other novel mechanisms in the the IEEE 802.11 universe, such as multiuser transmissions, multi-AP cooperation, spatial reuse and coexistence in high-density WLAN scenarios. Overall, we believe TWT may be a first step towards a practical collision-free and deterministic access in future WLANs.

Bluetooth and IEEE 802.11 (Wi-Fi) are two communication protocol standards that define a physical layer and a MAC layer for wireless communications within a short range (from a few meters up to 100 m) with low power consumption (from less than 1 mW up to 100 mW). Bluetooth is oriented to connecting close devices, serving as a substitute for cables, while Wi-Fi is oriented toward computer-to-computer connections, as an extension of or substitution for cabled LANs. In this article we offer an overview of these popular wireless communication standards, comparing their main features and behaviors in terms of various metrics, including capacity, network topology, security, quality of service support, and power consumption.
