Abstract
Disclosed are techniques to provide data at listening event offsets, using a buffering scheme having a common buffer. Received data, to be transmitted at the listening event offsets, is stored into the common buffer without classification to listening event offsets. Data to be transmitted at an upcoming listening event offset is identified in the common buffer prior to the listening event offset. Example techniques provide for simpler reconfigurability of listening events offsets, as well as transmitting data at each listening event offset that is responsive to a state of the system prior to the listening event offset.
