Abstract: | Motivated by topology control in ad hoc wireless networks, Power Assignment is a family of problems, each defined by a certain connectivity constraint (such as strong connectivity). The input consists of a directed complete weighted digraph G=(V,c) (that is, ). The power of a vertex u in a directed spanning subgraph H is given by , and corresponds to the energy consumption required for node u to transmit to all nodes v with uv∈E(H). The power of H is given by . Power Assignment seeks to minimize p(H) while H satisfies the given connectivity constraint.Min-Power Bounded-Hops Broadcast is a power assignment problem which has as additional input a positive integer d and a r∈V. The output H must be a r-rooted outgoing arborescence of depth at most d. We give an (O(logn),O(logn)) bicriteria approximation algorithm for Min-Power Bounded-Hops Broadcast: that is, our output has depth at most O(dlogn) and power at most O(logn) times the optimum solution.For the Euclidean case, when c(u,v)=c(v,u)=∥u,v∥κ (here ∥u,v∥ is the Euclidean distance and κ is a constant between 2 and 5), the output of our algorithm can be modified to give a O((logn)κ) approximation ratio. Previous results for Min-Power Bounded-Hops Broadcast are only exact algorithms based on dynamic programming for the case when the nodes lie on the line and c(u,v)=c(v,u)=∥u,v∥κ.Our bicriteria results extend to Min-Power Bounded-Hops Strong Connectivity, where H must have a path of at most d edges in between any two nodes. Previous work for Min-Power Bounded-Hops Strong Connectivity consists only of constant or better approximation for special cases of the Euclidean case. |
