Abstract:The mobility and portability of next generation cellular devices must address limited accessibility to power, hence, power-saving techniques of the mobile terminals are crucial. In this paper we provide a comprehensive measurement study of power-save mechanisms implemented in current IEEE 802.16 (WiMAX) deployed networks. Particularly, we examine the power consumption of the various transmission and reception modes, and compare them with the power consumption during Idle and Sleep modes. We show, both experime… Show more
