Abstract

A wireless receiver powers up shortly before the expected arrival of a beacon frame, and upon detection of a beacon frame from an access point the station is associated with and determination of subsequent fields of interest, including at least a TIM field, the receiver powers down. At the previously identified fields of interest, the receiver powers up and uses previously stored values to continue packet demodulation, thereafter examining the TIM field to determine whether the AP has packets to transmit to the station.
