Patent Images
1. A system for managing power consumption of a device node attached to a communication node of a communication network, the system comprising:
- an interface configurable for coupling to the communication node; and
a controller coupled to the interface and operable for learning an activity pattern at the device node, generating a command based on the learned activity pattern, and sending the command to the device node for setting the device node into an operational mode associated with power consumption.
