Abstract
A method in a mobile communication terminal includes accepting a data payload at a known input rate for transmission by baseband circuitry having a known wake-up delay. Based on the known input rate and the known wake-up delay, a point in time is predicted, at which the data payload will have been only partially accepted for transmission, such that activation of the baseband circuitry at the predicted point in time will cause the baseband circuitry to be active upon complete arrival of the data payload. The baseband circuitry is activated to process the data payload at the predicted point in time.
