I. Introduction
Wireless multimedia communications at high data rates are in increasing demand. Device power is increasing along with standards addressing larger capacity wireless networks to meet rising demands. Processor power usage is rising by 150% per two years even while silicon technology is doubling roughly every two years. The gap between the available battery capacity and the rate of energy demand is widening exponentially. In comparison, battery technology is improving very modestly, by 10% every two years. The available battery capacity is also being constrained ergonomically by the shrinking device sizes.As an example of the aforementioned, data from Reference demonstrates that with each successive standard, the energy usage of market 802.11 transceivers has risen in all modes of operation [1]. For long-distance connections, such those in cellular networks, the power usage in the uplink will be significantly higher. Furthermore, as more and more devices with diverse radio protocols are used, we anticipate that wireless power consumption will continue to rise. Additionally, wireless energy usage is growing in importance as gadget sizes get smaller. Reference demonstrates how radio interfaces, such as Bluetooth, WiFi, plus cellular connectivity, take up more over half of the system's total energy budget. Power efficiency is therefore, as outlined above, getting more and more crucial for battery-driven cellular or wireless telephony [2].
