Abstract
Methods and systems of managing radio based power may include a mobile platform having a plurality of radios and logic to detect changes in location for the mobile platform. The logic may also deactivate at least one of the plurality of radios in response to the changes in location. The changes in location may be detected based on location information obtained from one or more active radios in the plurality of radios and connection losses with respect to active radios in the plurality of radios.
Claims15
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising a set of instructions which, when executed by one or more processors, cause a system to:
- detect a change in location for a mobile platform having a plurality of radios, wherein each of the plurality of radios supports a different wireless technology, and the change in location is based on information received from one or more active radios of the plurality of radios on the mobile platform including a connection loss;
- and
- activate a Wi-Fi radio in response to the change in location,
- wherein a first profile is associated with a first location and a second profile is associated with a second location, and the first profile and the second profile each include location entry criteria, location exit criteria, and radio settings including activation and deactivation information for the plurality of radios.
A mobile platform comprising:
- a plurality of radios;
- and
- logic to,
- detect a change in location for the mobile platform, wherein each of the plurality of radios supports a different wireless technology, and the change in location is based on information received from one or more active radios of the plurality of radios on the mobile platform including a connection loss, and
- activate a Wi-Fi radio in response to the change in location,
- wherein a first profile is associated with a first location and a second profile is associated with a second location, and the first profile and the second profile each include location entry criteria, location exit criteria, and radio settings including activation and deactivation information for the plurality of radios.
An apparatus comprising:
- logic to,
- detect a change in location for a mobile platform having a plurality of radios, wherein each of the plurality of radios supports a different wireless technology, and the change in location is based on information received from one or more active radios of the plurality of radios on the mobile platform including a connection loss, and
- activate a Wi-Fi radio in response to the change in location,
- wherein a first profile is associated with a first location and a second profile is associated with a second location, and the first profile and the second profile each include location entry criteria, location exit criteria, and radio settings including activation and deactivation information for the plurality of radios.
