The proliferation of embedded systems, mobile devices, wireless sensor applications and in-
creasing global demand for energy directed research attention toward self-sustainable and
environmentally friendly systems. In the field of communications, this new trend pointed
out the need for study of energy constrained communication and networking. Particularly, in
the literature, energy efficient transmission schemes have been well studied for various cases.
However, fundamental results have been obtained mostly for offline problems which are not
applicable to practical implementations. In contrast, this thesis focuses on online counterparts
of offline transmission scheduling problems and provides a theoretical background for energy
efficient online transmission schemes. The proposed heuristics, Expected Threshold and Expected Water Level policies, promise an adequate solution which can adapt to short-time-scale
dynamics while being computationally efficient.
