TL;DR

This paper examines the limitations of state-based energy consumption models, highlighting issues with assuming constant energy use and proposing solutions based on examples from wireless networks.

Contribution

It identifies key problems with existing models and suggests potential solutions to improve accuracy during state transitions and fluctuations.

Findings

Energy consumption varies during state transitions.

State-based models often assume constant energy use.

Proposed solutions address energy fluctuation issues.

Abstract

Energy consumption modelling by state based approaches often assume constant energy consumption values in each state. However, it happens in certain situations that during state transitions or even during a state the energy consumption is not constant and does fluctuate. This paper discusses those issues by presenting some examples from wireless sensor and wireless local area networks for such cases and possible solutions.
