Abstract
The invention relates to a method for interrupting an idle state of a communication unit in a communication system, especially in a radio communication system. To keep the response time of a communication unit operating in a standby mode as short as possible following a user input, it is provided according to the invention that, in response to an interrupt request, the time still remaining to the next activation is reduced to a time which is sufficient for preparing the activation if the time still remaining is greater than a predetermined time.
Claims8
Method for interrupting an idle state of a communication unit in a communication system, especially in a radio communication system, in which, in response to an interrupt request, the time still remaining to the next activation is reduced to a time which is sufficient for preparing the activation only if the time still remaining is greater than a predetermined time that is at least sufficient for preparing the activation.
Method for interrupting an idle state of a communication unit in a communication system, especially in a radio communication system, in which, in response to an interrupt request, the time still remaining to the next activation is reduced to a time which is sufficient for preparing the activation wherein the time still remaining is established in order to determine therefrom a subtraction value by which the time still remaining is reduced.
Method for interrupting an idle state of a communication unit in a communication system, especially in a radio communication system, in which, in response to an interrupt request, the time still remaining to the next activation is reduced to a time which is sufficient for preparing the activation wherein the time still remaining of an idle state is detected as count of an idle state counter of a timer circuit, the count of which is set to a count which is closer to the target value in order to reduce the time still remaining.
