AT LEAST ONE MESSAGE TO ANNOUNCE ENTRY INTO RELATIVELY LOWER POWER STATE

摘要

An embodiment may include circuitry that may be capable of performing operations that may include generating, at least in part, at least one message to announce that at least one network node (1) is requesting, at least in part, that one or more transmissions to the at least one network node be postponed, at least in part, and/or (2) is entering, at least in part after issuance of the at least one message, a relatively lower power state relative to a relatively higher power state. Additionally or alternatively, the operations may include, in response, at least in part, to the at least one message, postponing, at least in part, at least one intermediate node at least one transmission (received by the at least one intermediate node) to the at least one network node. Many alternatives, variations, and/or modifications are possible without departing from this embodiment.
