Resource management for a mobile telephone terminal

摘要

A resource management unit for a mobile telephone terminal, with the terminal comprising radio transmission/reception means for transmitting and receiving radio frequency signals corresponding to bursts of symbols during allocated time slots, and a device able to operate in a first mode and in a second mode, said device interfering less with the transmission/reception of radio frequency signals when it is in the first mode than when it is in the second mode. The resource management unit is able to cause the device to change from one of the first and second modes to the other of the first and second modes during the same time slot.

主权项

1. A mobile telephone terminal, comprising:
a radio transceiver operative to transmit and receive bursts of radio frequency signals, and further operative to receive a value for at least one measured transmission or reception quality parameter; a synchronization circuit arranged to provide allocated time slots, with each time slot allocated for the transmission or reception of radio frequency signals corresponding to a burst; at least one device able to operate in a first mode and in a second mode, said at least one device interfering less with the transmission or reception of radio frequency signals when it is in the first mode than when it is in the second mode; and a resource management circuit operative to cause said at least one device to change from one of the first and second modes to the other of the first and second modes during a first allocated time slot at a moment within the first time slot that is not coincident with the beginning or end of the first time slot, the moment chosen as a function of said at least one received value, such that the device operates in the first, less interfering mode during only a part of the time slot, and for a duration determined by the at least one received value.
