Abstract [eng] |
Wireless network infrastructure is based on the Wi-Fi technology, which allows access to reliable and high-speed Internet connection wirelessly. Wi-Fi network can be used in Pocket PCs (called PDAs) to connect to a computer network with the equipped access point (access point). This connection provides a secure medium for the transmission of information when using wireless network security technologies, WPA or WPA2. WEP is an older network security method and it is not secure. Merger over Wi-Fi handheld interface influences energy consumption. This work focuses on the pda's battery power consumption, depending on the selected security protocol. Provided energy-saving mode for mobile devices, security protocols are discussed. The energy assessment method and the experiment methodology are described. Based on the results, the conclusions about the choice of security protocols are done. |
