Abstract
A method for reducing power consumption on a wireless communication device is described. The wireless communication device includes a first stage active filter and a second stage active filter. A condition measurement is obtained that includes a signal measurement condition. If it is determined that the condition measurement is above a threshold, the second stage active filter is bypassed.
Claims50
A method for reducing power consumption on a wireless communication device, wherein the wireless communication device comprises a first stage active filter and a second stage active filter, the method comprising:
- obtaining a condition measurement that comprises a signal condition measurement;
- determining if the condition measurement is above a threshold;
- and
- bypassing the second stage active filter if the condition measurement is above the threshold.
A wireless device for reducing power consumption on a wireless communication device, wherein the wireless device comprises a first stage active filter and a second stage active filter, the wireless device comprising:
- a processor;
- memory in electronic communication with the processor;
- and
- instructions stored in the memory, the instructions being executable by the processor to:
- obtain a condition measurement that comprises a signal condition measurement;
- determine if the condition measurement is above a threshold;
- and
- bypass the second stage active filter if the condition measurement is above the threshold.
A computer-program product for reducing power consumption on a wireless communication device, the computer-program product comprising a non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions thereon, the instructions comprising:
- code for causing a wireless communication device to obtain a condition measurement that comprises a signal condition measurement;
- code for causing the wireless communication device to determine if the condition measurement is above a threshold;
- and
- code for causing the wireless communication device to bypass a second stage active filter if the condition measurement is above the threshold.
An apparatus for reducing power consumption on a wireless communication device, comprising:
- means for obtaining a condition measurement that comprises a signal condition measurement;
- means for determining if the condition measurement is above a threshold;
- and
- means for bypassing a second stage active filter if the condition measurement is above the threshold.
