Abstract
A method for flexible discontinuous receive management for telematics includes monitoring vehicle usage parameters and altering discontinuous receive behavior responsive to said monitored vehicle usage parameters. In an example, the method improves communication opportunity to vehicles that are inactive, to allow telematics operation in circumstances where the operation would have been delayed or even not possible.
