Abstract :
In the mobile ad-hoc network, there can exist two categories of terminals, the battery-powered and the outlet-plugged terminals. A new scheme for the power-saving of battery-powered terminals in mobile ad-hoc networks is proposed. Based on this scheme, the battery-powered terminals page the traffic with minimum power to the nearest outlet-plugged terminal, and only the outlet-plugged terminals are used as the routing terminals. The simulation results show that the mean radius of the battery-powered terminal´s paging area are much smaller than that of the other conventional schemes
