1. A method, comprising:
- receiving data frames carrying voice, video, or other multimedia traffic at a client station via a wireless link;
measuring a frame rate of the received data frames for a period of time; and
configuring a power save parameter of the client station based on the measuring to adjust a delivery characteristic of the data frames to the client station during a power save state of the client station,wherein the power save state comprises an unscheduled power save delivery state using trigger and deliver mechanisms for receiving the data frames over the wireless link.

Abstract
A mechanism to configure power save parameters of a wireless client station. When data frames carrying voice, video, or other multimedia traffic are received at the client station via a wireless link, a frame rate of the received data frames is measured for a period of time. Then a power save parameter of the client station is configured based on the measuring to adjust delivery of the data frames to the client station during a power save state of the client station.

9. A machine-readable storage medium that provides instructions that, if executed by a machine, will cause the machine to perform operations comprising:
-
receiving data frames carrying voice or video traffic at a client station via a wireless link; measuring a frame rate of the received data frames for a period of time; and configuring a power save parameter of the client station based on the measuring to adjust a delivery characteristic of the data frames to the client station during a power save state of the client station, wherein measuring the frame rate of the received data frames includes; entering the client station into a learning state; indicating to an access point via the wireless link that the client station has entered an active mode of operation to freely receive the data frames from the access point; and counting a number of the data frames received during the period of time while in the learning state. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A wireless client station, comprising:
-
a dipole antenna; a processor to execute instructions, the processor coupled to the dipole antenna; and a memory to store the instructions, the memory coupled to the processor to provide the instructions thereto, which when executed by the processor cause the wireless client station to perform operations comprising; receiving data frames carrying voice or video traffic via the dipole antenna; measuring a frame rate of the received data frames for a period of time; and configuring a power save parameter of the wireless client station based on the measured frame rate to adjust delivery of the data frames to the wireless client station during a power save state of the wireless client station, wherein measuring the frame rate of the received data frames includes; entering the wireless client station into a learning state; indicating to an access point via a wireless link that the wireless client station has entered an active mode of operation to freely receive the data frames from the access point; and counting a number of the data frames received during the period of time while in the learning state. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19)
