Abstract

The present disclosure presents a method and apparatus for reducing power consumption during a voice communication in a user equipment (UE). For example, the method may include receiving a plurality of frames associated with the voice communication. Further, such an example method may include determining whether a frame pattern based at least on the received plurality of frames corresponds to a transition from a speech burst period to a non-speech period, and disabling a portion of a receiver subsystem at the UE for at least a portion of a frame associated with the non-speech period. As such, the power consumption in a UE may be reduced.
