Call for Papers
2006 IEEE International Conference On Networking, Sensing and Control (ICNSC 06)
Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, U.S.A. April 23-25, 2006
Special Session: Energy-Efficient Wireless Communication
Energy consumption in wireless networks is an important design consideration
due to the limited battery capacity of mobile devices. Advances in hardware
and software technologies have not been matched by corresponding
improvements in battery technologies. Since wireless communication is a
major contributor to the total energy consumption on many battery-powered
mobile devices, the success of new wireless technologies is contingent on
their power-conservation techniques. It is important to understand and
characterize the energy-consumption behaviors of the communication
components in mobile devices. Furthermore, considerable research has been
devoted to low-power design of the entire network protocol stack of wireless
networks, in an effort to enhance energy efficiency. The goal of this
special session is to bring together researchers in the field of
energy-efficient wireless communications and networks, and provide a forum
for the state-of-the-art research and development.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, power-conservation
techniques on the following aspects of wireless computing:
-Power-aware network architectures
-Power management and control
-Energy consumption modeling
-Antennas and RF subsystems
-Coding and modulation
-Media access control
-Routing and Mobile IP
-Transport protocols
-Middleware and applications
-Wireless sensor networks
-Heterogeneous (wired/wireless) networks
