Abstract
Energy consumption is a major issue in Wireless Ad-Hoc Networks because the nodes are energy constrained due to minimal power supply. Transmission power is known to be one of the major causes of energy consumption; therefore it must be properly managed. Energy management can be achieved through varying the transmission power with respect to the distance through a technique called Transmission power control. This paper will investigate how transmission power affects consumption of energy in Wireless Ad-hoc Networks. In addition, a Variable Transmission Power Control (VTPC) will be developed in order to minimize the rate of consumption of energy by the nodes in Ad-hoc Networks.
