Popis: End-to-end communication is the fundamental building block of communication networks. In this paper, we discuss globally optimal energy efficient design for end-to-end communications. An end-to-end multiple-hop system with one sender, one receiver, and multiple relays is considered. We first study in detail energy-efficient designs in the wideband regime that is characterized by wide signal bandwidth and low spectral efficiency, and later briefly those in the narrowband regime. We will reveal the globally optimal link adaptation as well as relay deployment strategies such that the whole system can achieve the highest energy efficiency. The technologies proposed can be used in various communication systems, such as the deployment and communication of wired core networks and wireless relay networks, to improve their energy efficiency. While this paper focuses on a linear end-to-end network topology, the methodology can be easily extended to two-dimensional network topologies for energy-efficient designs of the whole network QC 20130920 Energy Efficient Wireless Networking (eWIN)
