Abstract
In this paper, we propose an adaptive application-driven power management (AADPM) protocol for wireless information retrieval applications within the IEEE 802.11b infrastructure WLAN environment. Our goal is to minimize energy consumption while achieving low round trip time delay. We discuss the protocol and evaluate its effectiveness using the network simulator NS2. We also draw horizontal comparisons among a variety of PM methods reported in the literature. Experimental results show that, compared to the power save mode supported by 802.11b, AADPM reduces the network interface card energy consumption by 52% while only introducing 3% RTT delay.
