Method and System for Reducing Power Consumption in Wireless Communications
First Claim
1. A method for reducing power consumption in a wireless communication, the method comprising:
- initiating a receiving interval by a primary device;
receiving a data transmission from a peripheral device during the receiving interval;
determining, by the primary device, a correction offset according to a receive timing of the data transmission of the peripheral device, the correction offset determined so as to enable a subsequent data transmission by the peripheral device to occur within a subsequent receiving interval of the primary device; and
transmitting the correction offset by the primary device to the peripheral device.

Abstract
According to one disclosed embodiment, a method for reducing power consumption in wireless communications is described. This method may include transmitting a data transmission from a peripheral device to a primary device during a receiving interval of the primary device, receiving a correction offset by the peripheral device from the primary device after the transmitting of the data transmission, and transmitting a subsequent data transmission from the peripheral device to the primary device using the correction offset to ensure that the subsequent data transmission by the peripheral device occurs within a subsequent receiving interval of the primary device.
