Book Measurement and Reduction of Power Consumption in Mobile Phones

Download or read book Measurement and Reduction of Power Consumption in Mobile Phones written by Jonathan Adam Lawton and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, consumer adoption of smartphones has been rising rapidly, increasing the demand for high performance mobile devices with long battery life. While the capabilities of mobile systems-on-chip have scaled impressively, battery technology has seen only a modest improvement. In order to address this gap, new power management schemes are needed for the mobile environment. This work proposes adding real-time hardware power measurement to smartphones in order to enable more advanced power management algorithms. The theoretical basis and power cost of making system-level power measurements is explored, an actual power measurement system implemented and characterized, and a number of power management algorithms implemented and evaluated. It is found that a suitable power measurement system could consume as little as 4 [mu]W based on theoretical limits, and that real time power data can be used to control system clock rate to adhere to target power consumption.

Book Reducing 3rd Generation Energy Consumption on Mobile Devices

Download or read book Reducing 3rd Generation Energy Consumption on Mobile Devices written by Shuo Deng and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 3G wireless interface is a significant contributor to battery drain on mobile devices. This paper describes the design, implementation, and experimental evaluation of methods to reduce the energy consumption of the 3G radio interface. The idea is to put the radio in its "Low-power idle" state when no application is likely to need the network for some duration of time in the future. We present two techniques, one to determine when to change the radio's state from "Active" to "Low-power idle", and the other to change the radio's state from "Low-power idle" to "Active". The technique for switching to Low-power idle mode is well-suited for the emerging "fast dormancy" [3, 4] primitive that will soon be common on smartphones. We demonstrate using an implementation and a trace-driven evaluation based on the measurement and trace collected from HTC GI and Samsung Nexus S phones over various combinations of seven different background applications that our methods reduce the energy consumption of the 3G interface by 36% on average compared to the currently deployed scheme on the T-mobile network. In addition, if applications are able to tolerate a delay of a few seconds when they initiate a session, our methods reduce energy consumption by 52% on average, with a mean increase in delay of 6.46 seconds.

Download or read book Battery Management Systems written by H.J. Bergveld and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Battery Management Systems - Design by Modelling describes the design of Battery Management Systems (BMS) with the aid of simulation methods. The basic tasks of BMS are to ensure optimum use of the energy stored in the battery (pack) that powers a portable device and to prevent damage inflicted on the battery (pack). This becomes increasingly important due to the larger power consumption associated with added features to portable devices on the one hand and the demand for longer run times on the other hand. In addition to explaining the general principles of BMS tasks such as charging algorithms and State-of-Charge (SoC) indication methods, the book also covers real-life examples of BMS functionality of practical portable devices such as shavers and cellular phones. Simulations offer the advantage over measurements that less time is needed to gain knowledge of a battery's behaviour in interaction with other parts in a portable device under a wide variety of conditions. This knowledge can be used to improve the design of a BMS, even before a prototype of the portable device has been built. The battery is the central part of a BMS and good simulation models that can be used to improve the BMS design were previously unavailable. Therefore, a large part of the book is devoted to the construction of simulation models for rechargeable batteries. With the aid of several illustrations it is shown that design improvements can indeed be realized with the presented battery models. Examples include an improved charging algorithm that was elaborated in simulations and verified in practice and a new SoC indication system that was developed showing promising results. The contents of Battery Management Systems - Design by Modelling is based on years of research performed at the Philips Research Laboratories. The combination of basic and detailed descriptions of battery behaviour both in chemical and electrical terms makes this book truly multidisciplinary. It can therefore be read both by people with an (electro)chemical and an electrical engineering background.

Book Controlling Energy Demand in Mobile Computing Systems

Download or read book Controlling Energy Demand in Mobile Computing Systems written by Carla Schlatter Ellis and published by Morgan & Claypool Publishers. This book was released on 2007-06-01 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This lecture provides an introduction to the problem of managing the energy demand of mobile devices. Reducing energy consumption, primarily with the goal of extending the lifetime of battery-powered devices, has emerged as a fundamental challenge in mobile computing and wireless communication. The focus of this lecture is on a systems approach where software techniques exploit state-of-the-art architectural features rather than relying only upon advances in lower-power circuitry or the slow improvements in battery technology to solve the problem. Fortunately, there are many opportunities to innovate on managing energy demand at the higher levels of a mobile system. Increasingly, device components offer low power modes that enable software to directly affect the energy consumption of the system. The challenge is to design resource management policies to effectively use these capabilities. The lecture begins by providing the necessary foundations, including basic energy terminology and widely accepted metrics, system models of how power is consumed by a device, and measurement methods and tools available for experimental evaluation. For components that offer low power modes, management policies are considered that address the questions of when to power down to a lower power state and when to power back up to a higher power state. These policies rely on detecting periods when the device is idle as well as techniques for modifying the access patterns of a workload to increase opportunities for power state transitions. For processors with frequency and voltage scaling capabilities, dynamic scheduling policies are developed that determine points during execution when those settings can be changed without harming quality of service constraints. The interactions and tradeoffs among the power management policies of multiple devices are discussed. We explore how the effective power management on one component of a system may have either a positive or negative impact on overall energy consumption or on the design of policies for another component. The important role that application-level involvement may play in energy management is described, with several examples of cross-layer cooperation. Application program interfaces (APIs) that provide information flow across the application-OS boundary are valuable tools in encouraging development of energy-aware applications. Finally, we summarize the key lessons of this lecture and discuss future directions in managing energy demand.

Book Measurement of Energy Consumption in Wireless LANs and Radio Frequency Identification Systems

Download or read book Measurement of Energy Consumption in Wireless LANs and Radio Frequency Identification Systems written by Suresh Ramamoorthy and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As mobile hand-held devices such as cell phones and personal digital assistants are battery operated, it is important to minimize their energy consumption. The limited lifetime of the battery is always a problem for all portable devices. Although battery technology has undergone a massive development over the years, it has not kept pace with other technologies. Therefore, research needs to be done to use the limited life time of the battery in an efficient way. With developments in science and technology, the power consumption of portable devices has been brought down due to the decrease in the size of the display and optimization of components. The trend toward smaller sizes of portable devices involved is responsible for the wireless network interface consuming a larger share of overall power consumption of a system. In order to optimize the power consumption of wireless communication, we should be aware of the power consumption pattern. Accurate energy models are required for designing and testing energy aware protocols. The accuracy of these energy models and their contribution toward energy aware protocol design depend on the accuracy and availability of sufficient data about power consumption of these devices. This work contributes to the building of such a power consumption database through a series of measurements of currently available Wireless Network Interface Cards (WNIC) and Radio Frequency Identification Devices (RFID). These measurements also help in understanding the behavior of these technologies at the lower levels of the network stack.
