ACTIVATION OF A WIRELESS TRANSCEIVER USING WAKEUP SIGNALS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18200788 titled 'ACTIVATION OF A WIRELESS TRANSCEIVER USING WAKEUP SIGNALS
Simplified Explanation
The patent application proposes a method to reduce power consumption in a wireless communication device while minimizing latency.
- The method involves using different types of wakeup signals and corresponding detectors to activate the device's transceiver.
- This allows the transceiver to operate in a discontinuous receiving mode, conserving power.
- The different wakeup signal detectors are triggered at different times, as indicated by a wakeup signal pattern sent by the network.
- By using this method, the device can conserve power without significantly increasing latency.
Original Abstract Submitted
In order to reduce power consumption of a wireless communication apparatus without unduly increasing latency a way of triggering activation of a transceiver on the apparatus is provided that uses different forms of wakeup signals and corresponding forms of wakeup signal detectors. This allows the transceiver to operate in a discontinuous receiving mode, with the different wakeup signal receivers detecting for wakeup signals at different times the times being indicated to the apparatus by a wakeup signal pattern sent by the network.
