This paper proposes a decentralized scheme to improve the energy efficiency (EE) in dense wireless local area networks (WLANs), based on inversely proportional setting (IPS) of carrier sense threshold (CST) and transmit power. Jointly adjusting the CST and transmit power in an inversely proportional manner, i.e., keeping their product to be a constant, is a promising technique to increase transmit opportunities in dense WLANs, without generating unfairness issue of asymmetric carrier sensing. The proposed scheme is formulated in the non-cooperative game framework. Two utility functions are designed, where the first utility function is an approximation of the EE. To guarantee the existence of the equilibrium, and to ensure the convergence of the proposed scheme, we further incorporate potential games, based on which the second utility function is de- signed. The second utility function can be considered as assigning a cost on the first utility function. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme provides considerable improvement in EE and average throughput under various node densities. The second utility function outperforms the first utility function, while the first one requires only local information to be calculated.
