I. I NTRODUCTION
Wireless networks have become increasingly important with the requirement for enhanced data and multimedia communications in ad hoc environments. While
single hop wireless networks, or infrastructured networks
are common, there are a growing number of applications
which require multi-hop wireless infrastructure which
does not necessarily depend one any fixed base-station.
Wireless ad hoc network needs some special treatment
as it intrinsically has its own special characteristics
and some unavoidable limitations compared with wired
networks. For example, wireless nodes are often powered
by batteries only and they often have limited memories.
A transmission by a wireless device is often received by
many nodes within its vicinity, which possibly causes
signal interferences at these neighboring nodes. On the
other hand, we can also utilize this property to save the
communications needed to send some information. Unlike most traditional static communication devices, the
wireless devices often move during the communication.
Therefore, it is more challenging to design a network
A. Network Model
We consider a wireless ad hoc network (or sensor
network) with all nodes distributed in a two dimensional
plane. It is assumed in our paper that all wireless nodes

B. Topology Control
Due to the limited power and memory, a wireless
node prefers to only maintain the information of a
subset of neighbors it can communicate, which is called
topology control. In recent years, there is a substantial
amount of research on topology control for wireless ad
hoc networks [?], [?], [?], [?], [?]. These algorithms
are designed for different objectives: minimizing the

Here u is node v1 and v is node vk . Let u H v
be the path connecting u and v using links in H with
the minimum total power consumption, and its power
consumption is then denoted by p(u H v). Formally
speaking, a structure H is a t-power-spanner of original
graph G if

In the remainder of the paper, we assume that the
maximum transmission range of every node is R0 (i.e.,
the maximum transmission power of every node is c1 +
c2 R0 ).
Lemma 6: Consider any structure H that is a tpower-spanner. For any link uv in the original graph
G, the t-power spanner path u H v has an Euclidean
length at most t A (c1 + c2 kuvk ), where A =

P ROOF. Remember that the power cost of using a link uv
is c1 + c2 kuvk . We define the mileage of this model as
max0<x c1 +cx2 x . In other words, milage is the maximum
distance a message can be sent q

maximum mileage for this energy model. Clearly the

maximum mileage is c2 (1)
. Hereafter, we use

A to denote such mileage.
We then show that the least power path u H v
has an Euclidean length, say x, within some constant
factor of the Euclidean length kuvk. From the definition
of mileage, we know that the total power of the path

. Since it is a t-power-spanner path
u H v is at least A
for uv , we have Ax t(c1 +c2 kuvk ). In other words,
x t A (c1 + c2 kuvk ).
A. Theoretical Analysis
For average performance analysis, we consider a set
of wireless nodes distributed in a two-dimensional unit
square region. The nodes are distributed according to
either the uniform random point process or homogeneous
Poisson process. A point set process is said to be a
uniform random point process, denoted by Xn , in a
region if it consists of n independent points each of
which is uniformly and randomly distributed over . The
standard probabilistic model of homogeneous Poisson
process is characterized by the property that the number
of nodes in a region is a random variable depending
only on the area (or volume in higher dimensions) of
the region. In other words,
