In this paper, we introduce a number of generic sleep mechanisms for energy saving at the vehicular roadside units (RSUs). Since random sleep cycles (sleep cycles type-I) were already introduced before, we term the introduced mechanisms sleep cycles (type-II, III, IV, V, VI). Each sleep cycles type arranges the service and sleep sequences distinctively to yield various levels of energy savings and average packet delay. A generic analytic model for the roadside unit (RSU) with such sleep cycles is proposed using G/G/1/K G-vacation queuing, where real vehicular traffic profiles and packet size measurements are utilised. The performance evaluation reveals that with one of the proposed sleep cycles (type-IV), the RSU achieves 68% energy savings and 7.3 ms average packet delay over the day, resulting in respective improvements of 10% and 28% compared to the existing random sleep cycles. These improvements have been achieved under a very conservative operating delay bound for audio conferencing applications. However, modern compression and codecs, due to their leniency on Quality of Service (QoS), would potentially enable higher energy savings through the proposed sleep cycles. |
