A method () and system () for adding a connection identifier to an existing power saving class. The method can include the steps of&#x2014;at a mobile unit () that is associated with at least one existing power saving class&#x2014;generating () a type-length-value that specifies the identification of the existing power saving class, and integrating () the type-length-value into a dynamic service message request. The method can also include the step of transmitting () the dynamic service message request to a base station () such that the connection identifier will be automatically added to the existing power saving class without requiring deactivation or redefinition of the existing power saving class.

Method and system for adding a new connection identifier to an existing power save class

A mobile communication device () includes a wide area network (WAN) modem () for communicating over a wireless WAN. During a voice call, the WAN modem operates in a power save mode () but must occasionally scan for handover candidate base stations (). The modem goes directly from the power save mode to a scan mode at an agreed upon time, first selected by the mobile communication device, but which may be modified by the base station.
