Improving Energy Efficiency in Idle Listening of IEEE 802.11 WLANs
This paper aims to improve energy efficiency of IEEE 802.11 wireless local area networks (WLANs) by effectively dealing with idle listening (IL), which is required for channel sensing and is unavoidable in a contention-based channel access mechanism. Firstly, we show that IL is a dominant source of...
