<p>The invention provides a wireless personal area network (WPAN) device, in which a beacon reception interval is set to vary in response to data reception and the power level of the device and a method for controlling beacon reception thereof. The WPAN device includes a receiver for receiving beacons at a predetermined interval, a frame analyzer for analyzing beacons, and a data-storing part for storing the information analyzed by the frame analyzer. The device further includes a traffic monitor for monitoring data reception, a power level detector for detecting power level, a beacon interval setter for setting the beacon interval in response to data reception and the power level, and a reception controller for controlling the beacon reception according to the set interval. A method for managing low power consumption in the WPAN device is also proposed.</p> |
