Abstract
Example embodiments relate to a communication device. One example communication device includes a communication module, an energy storage module, a power cutoff detection module, a processor, and a memory. The communication device is adapted to connect to a power grid for receiving power. The processor is adapted to operate the communication device in a normal mode when connected to the power grid. The power cutoff detection module is adapted to signal to the processor a cutoff from the power grid. The processor is adapted to operate the communication device in power cutoff mode using energy in the energy storage module after receipt of the signal of the power cutoff detection module. The processor is adapted, in power cutoff mode, to determine an amount of energy in the energy storage module and to store a value indicative of the amount in the memory.
