A number of power control algorithms have been proposed for mobile ad hoc networks. However, most of them either assume omni-directional antennas or mixture of omni-directional and directional antennas. Besides, there lack work that study the impact of power control on purely directional antenna-based protocols. In this paper, we evaluate the impact of power control on a purely directional antenna-based MAC protocol, LiSL/D MAC. Simulation results show that the proposed power control algorithm improves the system performance by 30% to 80% in terms of energy consumption while preserving network throughput and end-to-end delay.
