The present work proposes a new approach to energy effiency for filtering of a system interconnected by a Multi-Hop network. The minimization of the energy cost per time unit is obtained through limiting the number of packets retransmission in the Hop-by-Hop mechanism. We explore a trade-Off between system performance, measured by estimation error H-inf norm and energy consumption. The proposal is validated using a theoretical model for energy consumption of MICA2 transceivers.

In this work, we present an analysis of the Burst failure effect in the $H_\infty$ norm. We present a procedure to perform an analysis between different Markov Chain models and a numerical example. In the numerical example the results obtained pointed out that the burst failure effect in the performance does not exceed 6.3%. However, this work is an introduction for a wider and more extensive analysis in this subject.
