Energy Efficient Burst Scheduling in Mobile TV Services

초록

With the advancement of mobile communication technology, Mobile TV has emerged and is becoming increasingly popular. However, viewing is limited with battery-powered mobile devices. To reduce the energy consumption, burst transmission has been proposed for mobile devices. The optimal burst scheduling problem for energy saving has been proven to be NP-complete. This paper proposes a sub-optimal burst scheduling algorithm called Regulated Period Scheduling (RPS) for energy saving in Mobile TV networks. Simulation results demonstrate that the resulting energy saving of the proposed algorithm is about 10% greater than the state of the art algorithm can achieve while maintaining very low computation complexity.
