Optimal Access Point Power Management for Green IEEE 802.11 Networks

Optimal Access Point Power Management for Green IEEE 802.11 Networks

In this paper, we present an approach and an algorithm aimed at minimising the energy consumption of enterprise Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) during periods of low user activity. We act on two network management aspects: powering off some Access Points (APs), and choosing the level of transmi...
