Abstract
A device and method for managing power in a wireless telecommunication system. A telecommunication device operates in a power saving mode during a sleep interval whenever possible to minimize power drain. The telecommunication device monitors various device, channel and network parameters and dynamically adjusts the duration of the sleep interval based on the monitored parameters in order to optimize power savings.

11. A method comprising:
-
at a communication device operable in a network with a plurality of other remote telecommunication devices in a network, determining a value for a time-varying operating parameter; using the time varying operating parameter to establish a sleep interval duration; entering the sleep state to reduce power consumption in the communication device; from time to time, determining a new value for the time-varying operating parameter or determining a value for a second time-varying operating parameter; updating the sleep interval duration using the new value for the time-varying operating parameter or the value for the second time-varying operating parameter; and upon expiration of the updated sleep interval duration, exiting the sleep state. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)
