Abstract

A mobile device management system stores network parameters so that certain functionality can be disabled or placed in sleep mode to optimize and lengthen battery life. The mobile device analyzes its user calendar schedule to download navigation data and network parameters so that tasks such as downloading information and updates are performed during times that the mobile device is connected to lower cost network access such as WiFi networks. By performing tasks such as the downloading of information based on availability of low cost network resources, the battery life of the mobile device may be lengthened. By storing network parameters such as the location of dead zones and roaming zones, the constant pinging of the RF baseband chip can be disabled and only enabled when the mobile device knows it is close to an areas where the mobile device must switch networks, further reducing power consumption.
