SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DYNAMIC POWER SAVING IN A WIRELESS NETWORK

摘要

A system and method (100) for dynamic power saving in a wireless network comprising at least one access point (110) that provides wireless connectivity within said network and at least one connection manager (270) associated with at least one wireless station (130) using said network and facilitating management of connection establishment and tear down to access points (110) within said network. Access points (110) are associated with green agent modules (120) which are adapted to monitor and manage availability of its access points (110) based on traffic load; and wireless stations (130) are associated with adaptive agent module (140) to interact with connection managers (270) for connection establishment and tear down, based on information exchanged between green agent modules (120) within said network. Green agent modules and adaptive agent modules are embedded into access points and wireless station to perform the method in achieving power saving.
