I believe that you can not find a precise formula to calculate the load-dependent energy consumption of a WSN node. The load-dependent energy consumption can be estimated. The power consumption in a WSN node depends on its load - mainly on the load on its CPU. It is self-evident that a CPU with higher clock frequencies can do more and thus use more power. To save energy, a "load-dependent CPU clock" is realized. This idea was patented in the 90s - see for example:
US 5561792: Microprocessor with software switchable clock speed and drive strength, 1996
US 6076171: Information processing apparatus with CPU-load-based clock frequency, 1998
US 5996084: Method and apparatus for real-time CPU thermal management and power conservation by adjusting CPU clock frequency in accordance with CPU activity, 1998
US 5369771: Computer with transparent power-saving manipulation of CPU clock, 1994
US 5189647: Information processing system having power saving control of the processor clock, 1993
The added figure illustrates how the load-dependent energy consumption can be estimated.The following sources give some ideas:
I agree with the detailed info about the energy consumption with respect to processor of a sensor node. Along with that energy, there is a communication block that consumes more energy.. Roughly around 60 % of the energy consumption is due to the communication(radio) block. That also need to be included..Thank you. again...
And I search formulas for calculation a used energy for transmission and reception information (in relation with an information volume, a speed and the number of neighbor's nodes).
Also depends on the total load and subsystem + micro controller (includes ADC) duty cycle. is there a GPS receiver? What is the sensor power consumption (micro laser radar + UWB radars are being used)? Middleware power management (what approach being implemented as well as mote field configuration, such as tripwire)? And of course, what is the overall application? All of these directly impact WSN node consumption, both average and peak. You need to start a power budget and work through each subsystem, then consider the middleware (MAC, power management).
