METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR LOCATION ASSISTED POWER MANAGEMENT
First Claim
1. A method for power management, the method comprising:
- performing by one or more processors and/or circuits in a communication device;
determining a location of said communication device;
configuring a power management profile for said communication device and/or for one or more other devices that are communicatively coupled to said communication device, based on said determined location of said communication device, wherein said power management profile comprises at least one operational parameter that enables said communication device and/or said one or more other devices to utilize power from a plurality of power sources; and
controlling power usage of said communication device and/or said one or more devices based on said configured power management profile.

Abstract
A communication device may be operable to configure a power management profile for the communication device and/or for one or more devices communicatively coupled to the communication device based on determined location corresponding to the communication device. The power management profile may comprise one or more operational parameters for a plurality of power sources, and may be utilized to control power usage in the communication device and/or the one or more devices. The communication device may be integrated into or be coupled with a hybrid vehicle. The location determination may be performed based on GNSS functions. The power management profile may enable creating and/or modifying operation control data for chargeable power storage devices based on location related data. The operation control data for the chargeable power storage devices may pertain to consumption of power from and/or recharging of the chargeable power storage devices.
