Method and device for reducing power consumption of mobile terminal

An apparatus for reducing power consumption of a terminal device, comprising:

• processing circuitry configured to:
• release wireless network connection of the terminal device from a network in response to an instruction for reducing the power consumption of the terminal device, the terminal device receiving wireless communication service from the network;
• adjust a subset of communication parameters from first settings to second settings to reduce the power consumption of the terminal device, the communication parameters being associated with a baseband processing device in the terminal device;
• and
• reestablish the wireless network connection of the terminal device to the network;
• and
• interface circuitry configured to:
• when the wireless network connection is being reestablished, send the adjusted communication parameters to an access device in the network.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program executable by a processor to perform:

• releasing wireless network connection of the terminal device from a network in response to an instruction for reducing the power consumption of the terminal device, the terminal device receiving wireless communication service from the network;
• adjusting a subset of communication parameters from first settings to second settings to reduce the power consumption of the terminal device, the communication parameters being associated with a baseband processing device in the terminal device;
• reestablishing the wireless network connection of the terminal device to the network;
• and
• when the wireless network connection is being reestablished, sending the adjusted communication parameters to an access device in the network.
