METHOD OF OPERATING TERMINALS AND ACCESS POINT TO MAXIMIZE ENERGY EFFICIENCY OF WIRELESS LOCAL AREA NETWORK

摘要

A method for operating terminals and access points to maximize the energy efficiency of a wireless local area network is disclosed. The present invention provides a technology to maximize energy efficiency for the entire wireless local area network by determining transmission power and transmission mode in the light of the energy consumption of terminals which communicate with access points in the wireless local area network and remaining terminals.
