  • Abstract
    We consider the problem of maximizing the time-to-first-failure, defined as the time till the first node in the network runs out of battery energy, in energy constrained broadcast wireless networks. We discuss a greedy algorithm and prove that it solves the problem optimally for a broadcast application, in polynomial time, provided the complete power matrix and the battery residual capacities are known.
