As wireless communication devices are taking a significant part in our daily life, research steps toward making these devices even faster and smarter are accelerating rapidly. The main limiting factors are energy and power consumption. Many techniques are utilized to increase the battery’s capacity (Ampere per Hour), but that comes with a cost of raising the safety concerns. The other way to increase the battery’s life is to decrease the energy consumption of the devices. In this work, we analyze energy-efficient communications for wireless devices based on an advanced energy consumption model that takes into account a broad range of parameters. The developed model captures relationships between transmission power, transceiver distance, modulation order, channel fading, power amplifier (PA) effects, power control, multiple antennas, as well as other circuit components in the radio frequency (RF) transceiver. Based on the developed model, we are able to identify the optimal modulation order in terms of energy efficiency under different situations (e.g., different transceiver distance, different PA classes and efficiencies, different pulse shape, etc). Furthermore, we capture the impact of system level and network level parameters on the PA energy via peak to average ratio (PAR) and power control. We are also able to identify the impact of multiple antennas at the handset on the energy consumption and the transmitted bit rate for few and many antennas (conventional multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) and massive MIMO) at the base station. This work provides an important framework for analyzing energy-efficient communications for different wireless systems ranging from cellular networks to wireless internet of things.
