Power management of a radio data transceiver

摘要

Methods and apparatuses for operating a wireless mobile station configured to communicate with a wireless access point are described. A wireless mobile station can determine an interval of time between successive target beacon transmission times. The wireless mobile station can adjust, based at least in part on the interval of time, a period of time of an awake timer in response to having determined the interval of time.
