ADAPTIVE DRX CYCLE LENGTH BASED ON AVAILABLE BATTERY POWER

摘要

Methods and apparatuses enable providing a dynamic, adaptive discontinuous reception (DRX) period based on available battery power of a mobile device. A mobile device can be assigned a DRX period based on a battery power level of the mobile device, and the assigned DRX period can be dynamically changed to reflect changes to the battery power level. In one embodiment, the mobile device initiates changes to the DRX period.
