Abstract
A battery-powered selective call transceiver, operating in two-way communication with an RF communication system, can be put in a power saving state. A user control on the transceiver allows a user to select the duration of a power saving interval. The transceiver sends to the communication system a signal requesting that the transceiver enter a power saving state for the selected interval. Upon receipt of an acknowledgment signal from the system, the transceiver enters the power saving state.
