This paper proposes a stochastic/dynamic routing protocol which aims the minimization of the summation of time average expected power expenditure with buffer stability in mobile ad-hoc 60 GHz wireless networks. By using 60 GHz RF, the wireless devices can transmit/receive 1080p HD video signals without compression. In addition, our algorithm works without centralized controller, so that the distributed operation is available. The novelty of the proposed algorithm was also verified by simulations.

In this Paper, we propose an energy efficient localization technique based on WUSB (Wireless USB) over WBAN (Wireless Body Area Networks) protocol required for Wearable Computer systems. For this purpose, the proposed localization algorithm minimizes power consumption and estimates location without range information. It is executed independently on the basis of WUSB over WBAN protocol at each sensor node comprising peripherals of a wearable computer system. And it minimizes power consumption by estimating locations of sensor nodes with range-free method fast.

In this paper, a solar energy powered bicycle linked to a wireless sensor network (WSN) which monitors the transfer of solar energy to an electrical energy storage unit and an analysis of its effectiveness is proposed. In order to achieve this goal, a solar-powered bicycle with an attached ZigBee and a far-end wireless network supervisory system is setup. Experimental results prove that our prototype, solar energy powered bicycle, can achieve enough solar energy for charging a two lead-acid battery pack. As a result, the user, through use of a wireless network in the parking period can be kept aware of the data on the amount of immediate solar radiation, the degree of illumination, the ambient temperature, and electrical energy storage capacity information of the bicycle through an internet interface.

The KEPRI has been developing the medium/small scale Distribution Automation System(DAS) that adopts wireless transmission media for exchanging information between master and remote terminals. It was concluded that Short Message Service(SMS) of Personal Communication Service(PCS) was the best wireless transmission media for the medium/small scale DAS in the last year. However. we had problem that PCS had long transmission delay. Therefore. SMS phones will be substituted with Radio Link Protocol(RLP) modems having transmission delay less than 5 seconds. This paper describes wireless networks for DAS, practical experience.

The wireless sensor networks have been extensively researched. One of the issues in wireless sensor networks is a developing energy-efficient clustering protocol. Clustering algorithm provides an effective way to extend the lifetime of a wireless sensor networks. In this paper, we proposed an energy efficient clustering scheme by adjusting group size. In sensor network, the power consumption in data transmission between sensor nodes is strongly influenced by the distance of two nodes. And cluster size, that is the number of cluster member nodes, is also effected on energy consumption. Therefore we proposed the clustering scheme for high energy efficiency of entire sensor network by controlling cluster size according to the distance between cluster header and sink.

We develop a wireless, contact free power transfer mechanism that is safer than the direct metallic contact and robust to imperfect alignment on landing at the base station. A magnetic field is created using inductors on both the transmitting and receiving sides. We use the inductive wireless recharging to increase autonomy and decrease the sensor interference by reducing the inductor loop size. By locating four independent small receiver loops and corresponding four circuits around the quadrotor UAV, we can increase safety from circuit malfunctions in comparison to the use of just one loop. On the base station, four folding robotic bars are used to realign the receiver loops over the transmitter loops. After adequate recharging as measured by battery voltages or power consumption at the bae station, the UAV sends a signal to the base station to open the robotic bars and takes off once freed from the robotic bars.

Recently, the rapid growth of mobile radio system has led to an increasing demand of low-cost high performance communication IC's. In this paper, we have designed RF front end for wireless LAN receiver employ zero-IF architecture. A low-noise amplifier (LNA) and double-balanced mixer is included in a front end. The zero-IF architecture is easy to integrate and good for low power consumption, so that is coincided to requirement of wireless LAN. But the zero-IF architecture has a serious problem of large offset. Image-reject mixer is a good structure to solve offset problem. Using offset compensation circuit is good structure, too. The front end is implemented in 0.25 ${\mu}m$ CMOS technology. The front end has a noise figure of 5.6 dB, a power consumption of 16 mW and total gain of 22 dB.

A wireless power transfer technique can solve the power capacity problem in wireless rechargeable sensor networks (WRSNs). The charging strategy is a wide-spread research problem. In this paper, we propose a demand-based charging strategy (DBCS) for WRSNs. We improved the charging programming in four ways: clustering method, selecting to-be-charged nodes, charging path, and charging schedule. First, we proposed a multipoint improved K-means (MIKmeans) clustering algorithm to balance the energy consumption, which can group nodes based on location, residual energy, and historical contribution. Second, the dynamic selection algorithm for charging nodes (DSACN) was proposed to select on-demand charging nodes. Third, we designed simulated annealing based on performance and efficiency (SABPE) to optimize the charging path for a mobile charging vehicle (MCV) and reduce the charging time. Last, we proposed the DBCS to enhance the efficiency of the MCV. Simulations reveal that the strategy can achieve better performance in terms of reducing the charging path, thus increasing communication effectiveness and residual energy utility.
