Abstract(in English) The common strategy for energy saving of wireless network devices is to stay in sleep mode when no data is being transmitted or received. For effective energy saving, it is important to understand the relationships between the behaviors of the transport-layer protocols and energy efficiency. From the transport-layer viewpoint, it is effective to lengthen the idle interval by transmitting and receiving multiple packets successively in an RTT, which is called as the burst transmission. In this report, we analyze the energy consumption in TCP data transfer with the burst transmission of TCP over a wireless LAN. Through numerical results of our analysis, we reveal the burst transmission can reduce the energy consumption in TCP data transfer by an approximately three-fifth. We also discuss factors of WLAN devices for effective energy saving based on the analysis results.
