Abstract

A wireless communication device (alternatively, device) includes a processing circuitry configured to support communications with other wireless communication device(s) and to generate and process signals for such communications. In some examples, the device includes a communication interface and a processing circuitry, among other possible circuitries, components, elements, etc. to support communications with other wireless communication device(s) and to generate and process signals for such communications. A device communicates with other devices informing them of energy, power, etc. management operation (e.g., with respect to low power or sleep mode). When the device receives responses from each of the other devices that they are informed of the operation of the device, then device performs such energy, power, etc. management. Alternatively, when response(s) are not received from all of the other devices, the device performs such energy, power, etc. management after a period of time (e.g., number of beacon intervals (BIs)).
