We describe an empirical study findings on the impact of throughput performance when transmission power is adjusted among access points in closed-proximity network devices. The experiment was conducted in an office environment to emulate such wireless LAN network. We introduce a potential energy efficient mechanism based on cognitively learning one

In this paper, we describe an empirical study on the impact of throughput performance when transmission power is adjusted. This experiment was conducted in an office environment for an OFDM-based wireless communication system such as WiFi 802.11g protocol network .
