Abstract
This research focuses on reducing or minimizing the power consumption, thereby increasing the network lifetime and also demonstrates a methodology for power consumption evaluation of WSN. The research also analyzes the energy consumption of ad hoc nodes using IEEE 802.11 interfaces; this was achieved using OPNET simulator. The evaluation takes into account the properties of the medium access protocol and the process of forwarding packets in ad hoc mode. The key point is to determine the node lifetime based on its average power consumption. The average power consumption is estimated considering how long the node remains sleeping, idle, receiving or transmitting.
