As the congestion decreases,the lower rate will be selected resulting in higher energy efficiency.6.8.6 Power Selection for the RateThe DPC algorithm calculates the transmission power only for the lowestsupported rate. In the case of proposed rate adaptation scheme, the necessarypower has to be selected to reflect the used rate. Hence, an appropriatetransmission power for a given rate is calculated as follows.THEOREM 6.8.2 (POWER CONTROL WITH RATE ADAPTATION)Given the lower <strong>and</strong> upper threshold values of SNR for a given rate, <strong>and</strong> theinformation for the lowest supported rate through DPC, the transmission powerfor the proposed energy-efficient rate adaptation scheme is given byPt () t = Pt () t ∗ SNR / SNRk 0 k 0(6.34)where SNR 0 is the target SNR for the lowest supported rate, SNR k is thetarget SNR for the k th modulation scheme, Pt0( t)is the estimated powervalue for the lowest supported rate, <strong>and</strong> Ptk( t)is the power value for thekth modulation scheme. Moreover, the error in estimation of power isbounded.
