Abstract

Methods and systems of managing radio based power may include a mobile platform having a plurality of radios and logic to detect changes in location for the mobile platform. The logic may also deactivate at least one of the plurality of radios in response to the changes in location. The changes in location may be detected based on location information obtained from one or more active radios in the plurality of radios and connection losses with respect to active radios in the plurality of radios.

Claims

1. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising a set of instructions which, if executed by a processor, cause a system to:

detect a change in location for a mobile platform having a plurality of radios; and

deactivate at least one of the plurality of radios in response to the change in location.
