In this work we investigate energy efficient packet scheduling problem for
the loss tolerant applications. We consider slow fading channel for a point to
point connection with no channel state information at the transmitter side
(CSIT). In the absence of CSIT, the slow fading channel has an outage
probability associated with every transmit power. As a function of data loss
tolerance parameters and peak power constraints, we formulate an optimization
problem to minimize the average transmit energy for the user equipment (UE).
The optimization problem is not convex and we use stochastic optimization
technique to solve the problem. The numerical results quantify the effect of
different system parameters on average transmit power and show significant
power savings for the loss tolerant applications.Comment: Published in ICC 201
