PROPOSED SYSTEM:
In this paper, our major contribution is to introduce signal strength into
location-based applications to reduce the energy consumption of mobile
devices for data reception.
To validate the practicability of the concept, we developed a virtual tour
system comprised of an online server and a mobile application program
based on Android.
First, we model the fundamental problem in the virtual tour system as a data
fetch scheduling problem.
Second, we propose a dynamic-programming algorithm to solve the
fundamental problem. The solution involves scheduling the fetching of
location-based information at appropriate locations so as to minimize the
total energy consumption. We prove that the algorithm is optimal in terms of
energy savings.
Third, we perform post optimal analysis to explore how the algorithm
responds to signal strength fluctuations, especially the fluctuation range
within which the derived solution remains optimal or feasible. The analysis
helps to understand the impact of signal fluctuations on the practicability of
this new concept in real-world environments.
Fourth, we discuss technical implementation issues that arise when
introducing signal strength into location-based applications for energy
savings.
Fifth, we conducted a series of experiments in Taipei City, Taiwan, for real-
world case studies. The results show that an Android smartphone of HTC
EVO 3D can achieve a significant energy reduction when accessing
location-based applications.
Finally, we discuss the limitations of our work and highlight issues that
require further investigation. The concept, once proved practicable and
embraced gradually, could be extended and applied to other variants of
location-based applications based on the knowledge learned from this work.
