Jina Hong, Sangmin Seo, Namgi Kim, Byoung-Dai Lee · 2013
For mobile cloud computing, one of the key issues is to minimize energy consumption in data communication. Although many studies have examined energy consumption of data transmissions, they are limited in that they have focused mainly on bitstream transmissions over existing 3G networks or Wi-Fi environments. Thus, the present paper explores energy efficiency of mobile devices when transferring data securely over various communication networks including high-speed 4G networks such as LTE and Wibro.
