Abstract
It has been shown that there is a certain distance beyond which multi-hop data transmission is more energy-efficient than direct transmission in wireless networks. In this letter we investigate the effects of noise level on the minimal energy-efficient relay distance. We find that under optimal conditions (i.e., optimal packet length and transmit power level) there is an inverse power-law relation between the noise level and the minimal energy-efficient relay distance.
