Abstract

A receiver electronic communication device and a sender electronic communication device are connected over a cellular network and the Internet. The receiver device uses discontinuous reception (DRX) to receiver data packets from the sender device. At least a starting time of an active period of a DRX cycle implemented at the receiver device is estimated responsive to monitoring the data packets transmitted from the sender device to the receiver device.
