Apparatus, method and computer program for a mobile device
First Claim
1. An apparatus for a mobile device, the apparatus comprising:
- a transceiver module for communication in a first mobile communication system and in a second mobile communication system; and
a control module to;
determine whether a time period until an estimated next time for replenishing an energy reserve of the mobile device lies above a time threshold value, anduse the first mobile communication system for a data transmission in response to determining that the time period lies above the time threshold value, and use the second mobile communication system for the data transmission in response to determining that a connection to the second mobile communication system is available at or before the next time for replenishing the energy reserve of the mobile device.

Abstract
An apparatus, a method and a computer program for a mobile device. The apparatus has a transceiver module for communication in a first mobile communication system and in a second mobile communication system and a control module to determine whether a time period until an estimated next time for replenishing an energy supply of the mobile device lies above a time threshold value. The control module uses the first mobile communication system for a data transmission if the time period lies above the time threshold value and uses the second mobile communication system for the data transmission if a connection to the second mobile communication system is available at or before the next time for replenishing the energy reserve of the mobile device.

9. A method for a mobile device, the method comprising:
-
determining whether a time period until an estimated next time for replenishing an energy reserve of the mobile device lies below a time threshold value; using a first mobile communication system for the data transmission in response to determining that the time period lies above the time threshold value; and using a second mobile communication system for the data transmission in response to a connection to the second mobile communication system being available at or before the next time for replenishing the energy reserve of the mobile device.
