The Gain of Energy Accumulation in Multi-Hop Wireless Network Broadcast
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Broadcast is a fundamental network operation, widely used in wireless networks to disseminate messages. The energy-efficiency of broadcast is important particularly when devices in the network are energy constrained. To improve the efficiency of broadcast, different approaches have been taken in the literature. One of these approaches is broadcast with energy accumulation. Through simulations, it has been shown in the literature that broadcast with energy accumulation can result in energy saving. The amount of this saving, however, has only been analyzed for linear multi-hop wireless networks. In this paper, we extend this analysis to two-dimensional (2D) multi-hop networks. The analysis of saving in 2D networks is much more challenging than that in linear networks. It is because, unlike in linear networks, in 2D networks, finding minimum-energy broadcasts with or without energy accumulation are both NP-hard problems. Nevertheless, using a novel approach, we prove that this saving is constant when the path loss exponent α is strictly greater than two. Also, we prove that the saving is θ(log n) when α = 2, where n denotes the number of nodes in the network.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
