First Claim
1. A method of power saving in a transceiver during a time interval, the time interval having a plurality of signals, comprising the steps of:
- receiving a first signal of the plurality of signals in an active power mode;
determining if there are other signals of the plurality of signals for the transceiver in response to the first signal;
operating the transceiver in the active power mode when there are other signals of the plurality of signals for the transceiver; and
operating the transceiver in a reduced power mode when there are no other signals of the plurality of signals for the transceiver.

Abstract
A method of power saving for a wireless transceiver (FIGS. 1 and 2) is disclosed. The transceiver has an active power mode (504) and a reduced power mode (510). The transceiver is operated in the reduced power mode (510) and monitors transmissions from a remote wireless transmitter while in the reduced power mode. The transceiver identifies a transmission from the remote wireless transmitter by a transceiver identity included in the transmission (FIG. 6, UE identification). The transceiver transitions to the active power mode (512) in response to identifying the transmission.

18. A method for power saving during a communications session in which packet transmission is scheduled at predetermined time intervals, comprising the steps of:
-
operating a transceiver having an active power mode and a reduced power mode;
operating the transceiver in the active power mode at the predetermined time intervals of the communications session; and
operating the transceiver in the reduced power mode during remaining time intervals of the communications session. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23)
