Abstract

System and method of dynamic bandwidth adjustment for browsing or streaming activity in a wireless network based on prediction of user behavior when interacting with mobile applications are disclosed. One embodiment includes mobile device which throttles radio use based on user habit. The mobile device is able to throttle the radio between high and lowered power states based on the user habit of a user using the mobile device in mobile usage sessions relating to, for example, browsing activity or content streaming activity, where, the radio can be throttled among three power states when connected to a 3G wireless network or throttled among two power states when connected to a 4G or LTE network/pre-LTE.
