ABSTRACT:
A method reduces power consumption in a multi-hop wireless communications network including a plurality of nodes. At a source node, a first power requirement for relaying a signal to a destination node through an intermediate node using an amplification mode is determined. A second power requirement for relaying the signal the destination node through the intermediate node using a regeneration mode is also determined at the source node. A relay request message is transmitted to the intermediate node, the relay request message including the first and second power requirements.
