Patent Images
1. A method for a mobile station configured to communicate with a network, comprising:
- receiving a first radio block, of a plurality of radio blocks, having a block sequence number, the first radio block including an indication instructing the mobile station to enter a dynamic timeslot reduction (DTR) mode;
after receiving the first radio block, receiving a first poll message; and
if all radio blocks, of the plurality of radio blocks, having block sequence numbers less than or equal to the block sequence number of the first radio block have been successfully received from the network, ignoring the first poll message and entering the DTR mode.

Abstract
A method for communicating with a mobile station is presented. The method includes transmitting a first radio block to the mobile station. The first radio block including an indication instructing the mobile station to enter a DTR mode. Before receiving an indication of whether the mobile station is in DTR mode, the method includes retransmitting to the mobile station at least one of the first radio block and a radio block previously transmitted to the mobile station using a timeslot that is not monitored by the mobile station when the mobile station is in the DTR mode.
