As mobile terminals are powered by a finite battery source, energy constraints play a major role in the design of wireless communications systems. In this letter, based on a general analytical framework, we study the energy efficiency of a class of multiple access schemes, using the average number of correctly transmitted packets for a given amount of allocated energy as an appropriate metric. We show that a good choice of the protocol rules can significantly improve the energy efficiency. © 1998 IEEE.

Abstract
As mobile terminals are powered by a finite battery source, energy constraints play a major role in the design of wireless communications systems. In this letter, based on a general analytical framework, we study the energy efficiency of a class of multiple access schemes, using the average number of correctly transmitted packets for a given amount of allocated energy as an appropriate metric. We show that a good choice of the protocol rules can significantly improve the energy efficiency. © 1998 IEEE.File in questo prodotto:
