Abstract
The subject matter disclosed herein relates to changing at least one power state of a mobile station at least in part in response to information indicating a change in altitude from one or more sensors.
Claims64
A method, comprising:
- detecting a change in altitude of a mobile station based, at least in part, on one or more signals provided by one or more sensors of the mobile station;
- and
- changing at least one power state of the mobile station at least in part in response to said detecting the change in altitude.
A mobile station, comprising:
- one or more sensors;
- an altitude monitor unit to detect a change in altitude of the mobile station based, at least in part, on one or more signals provided by the one or more sensors;
- and
- a power management unit to change at least one power state of the mobile station at least in part in response to said detecting the change in altitude.
1 more element
An apparatus, comprising:
- means for detecting a change in altitude of a mobile station based, at least in part, on signals provided by one or more sensors;
- and
- means for changing at least one power state of the mobile station at least in part in response to said detecting the change in altitude.
An article, comprising:
- a storage medium having stored thereon instructions that, if executed, enable a processor of a mobile station to:
- detect a change in altitude of a mobile station based, at least in part, on one or more signals provided by one or more sensors of the mobile station;
- and
- change at least one power state of the mobile station at least in part in response to said detecting the change in altitude.
1 more element
A method, comprising:
- detecting an airplane landing event based, at least in part, on one or more signals provided by one or more sensors of a mobile station;
- and
- changing at least one power state of the mobile station at least in part in response to said detecting the airplane landing event.
A method, comprising:
- detecting an airplane takeoff event based, at least in part, on one or more signals provided by one or more sensors of a mobile station;
- and
- changing at least one power state of the mobile station at least in part in response to said detecting the airplane takeoff event.
