Abstract

An apparatus, a method and a computer program for a mobile device. The apparatus has a transceiver module for communication in a first mobile communication system and in a second mobile communication system and a control module to determine whether a time period until an estimated next time for replenishing an energy supply of the mobile device lies above a time threshold value. The control module uses the first mobile communication system for a data transmission if the time period lies above the time threshold value and uses the second mobile communication system for the data transmission if a connection to the second mobile communication system is available at or before the next time for replenishing the energy reserve of the mobile device.
