Controlling wireless transition timers based on application and content
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- identifying, by a system including a processor, a wireless transition timer based on information relating to activity of an application and a wireless communication device; and
controlling, by the system, switching of the wireless communication device between wireless states based on a set of wireless transition timers, wherein the wireless states comprise a first wireless state and a second wireless state, the set of wireless transition timers comprises the wireless transition timer, and the set of wireless transition timers is identified based on a mapping relating to the wireless states and wireless transition timers of the set of wireless transition timers in relation to a change in data flow associated with the application.

Abstract
Techniques for adaptively controlling wireless transition timers associated with wireless transition states in relation to use of applications by user equipment (UE) are presented herein. A UE can include a transition management component (TMC) that can adaptively control wireless transition timers associated with wireless states based on application type, session content, or other factors. The TMC monitors data flow associated with an application and, for a current or subsequent communication session, controls the length of wireless transition timers and switching between wireless states to improve UE, application, and/or network performance while maintaining QOE for the user. The TMC can access a timer look-up table that maps wireless transition timers to application type, content type, user behavior, or other factors. The TMC also can desirably control maintaining persistence or always-on connections by controlling switching between wireless states using the adapted wireless transition timers.
