Abstract

Saving energy while providing end-to-end delay guarantees and robust operation have long been regarded as of paramount importance in real-time adhoc and sensor networks. In this paper we explore how rate-adaptation can save energy in ad-hoc and sensor networks that have real-time requirements, and how robustness requirements, achieved by multipath routing, affect the achievable energy savings. We formulate the problem of finding the most energy efficient data rate for each link, propose an adaptive data rate selection algorithm, and demonstrate that our scheme can save up to 15% energy, when compared with state of art, while still meeting the end-to-end delay guarantees.
