Abstract
Setting a power state of an information handling system, including identifying a power configuration policy, the power configuration policy including configuration rules for setting the power state of the information handling system; identifying a first power state of the information handling system; identifying, at a first time period, a first proximity of a communication-enabled portable computing device with respect to the information handling system; determining that the first proximity of the communication-enabled portable computing device is greater than a threshold; determining a velocity of movement of the communication-enabled portable computing device with respect to a receiver in communication with the communication-enabled portable computing device; accessing the power configuration policy to identify a configuration rule based on the velocity of movement of the communication-enabled portable computing device; and applying the particular configuration rule to adjust the first power state of the information handling system to a second power state.
