Abstract
This paper tends to integrate an experimentally-driven power consumption analysis followed by a solar unit designed for different 802.11 technologies (i.e. 802, 11a/b/g) using wireless Router-board 433AH. Backhaul wireless repeater is chosen as a case study and the detailed analysis is based on real-world traffic and workload. The summary results of the study shows that 802.11b can be run with smaller size solar energy unit although 802.11a has best performance but it needs larger energy solar unit. Our measurements show that the best solution in our case can be obtained using the 802.11g which has an optimal compromise solution between throughputs and power consumption.Keywords
