Abstract
A method for control of a telematic control unit comprises obtaining of information of discontinuity-beneficial conditions, associated with a vehicle to which the telematic control unit is connected. The discontinuity-beneficial conditions indicate that an extended discontinuous reception mode would be beneficial for the telematic control unit and the vehicle to which it is connected. A determination of an extended discontinuous reception time for the telematic control unit to propose is obtained. A request for an extended discontinuous reception mode for the telematic control unit is initiated as a response to obtained discontinuity-beneficial conditions, proposing the determined extended discontinuous reception time. A telematic control unit configured for performing such a control method is also presented.
