Wireless broadband access from mobile systems is among the largest system
power consumers. In this project, we aim at improving its energy efficiency
while meeting performance constraints. Our approach is system and we study
solutions that can be implemented in wireless network interface card (WNIC) and
software in a mostly standard-compliant manner.
