SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ENERGY-EFFICIENT TRANSMISSION POWER CONTROL, ROUTING AND TRANSMISSION SCHEDULING IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION NETWORKS

摘要

A mobile system for predicting characteristics for optimal communication among mobile nodes comprises a network controller and adaptive predictive mobile nodes. The adaptive predictive mobile nodes contain a position location technology, a database containing information on radio propagation affect, and a prediction processor. The mobile node determines its current position, predicts future position, and executes a set of prediction capabilities in the prediction processor. After executing these capabilities, the adaptive predictive node identifies the advantage location, power level, transmission parameters, communication time and route for communications between nodes. The adaptive predictive mobile node can then communicate when the criteria are met or may request scheduling. To request scheduling, the adaptive mobile node communicates the identified criteria to the network control entity.
