LTE Energy module is intended to provide a close real time power expenditure of LTE interface in a User Equipment. This makes researches to develop their things solutions with energy module for power optimized proposals.
Our NS3 LTE Enery module is based on the LTE power model developed by authors "A. R. Jensen, M. Lauridsen, P. Mogensen, T. B. Srensen, and P. Jensen". This work is published in "Vehicular Technology Conference (VTC Fall), 2012 IEEE". Power Spent on idle time, Transmission, Reception and combined transmission and reception are counted. Unlike Wi-Fi which can stay in one state at a time, LTE can be doing transmission and reception.
Performance evaluation for this NS3 module is available in http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=7947829&isnumber=7947763
