First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for data transmission between a sender device and a receiver device, the method comprising:
- monitoring data packets transmitted from the sender device to the receiver device; and
on the basis of said monitoring, estimating at least a starting time of an active period of a discontinuous reception cycle implemented at the receiver device.

Abstract
A receiver electronic communication device and a sender electronic communication device are connected over a cellular network and the Internet. The receiver device uses discontinuous reception (DRX) to receiver data packets from the sender device. At least a starting time of an active period of a DRX cycle implemented at the receiver device is estimated responsive to monitoring the data packets transmitted from the sender device to the receiver device.
