Abstract

A method and system for efficiently managing power consumption in a mobile device controls power consumption with an adjustable sleep period or listening interval that may be user-specified and automatically tuned based on recent detected usage. With an adjustable sleep period, a receiver conserves power by leaving a sleep mode only at predefined and adjustable periods, which may be selected by the user to balance connectivity and power saving and which may be automatically incremented when the device activity is low.
