Abstract

Method for reducing power consumption in Bluetooth and CDMA modes of operation is disclosed. According to a disclosed embodiment, the time for a next scheduled CDMA wakeup process to be performed by a CDMA module is established. Thereafter, if the next CDMA wakeup process is scheduled to be performed before the next Bluetooth wakeup process, a Bluetooth wakeup process is synchronized to be performed by a Bluetooth module at the same time as the next CDMA wakeup process. Following, when the time arrives for the CDMA module to perform the next CDMA wakeup process, the Bluetooth module also performs the Bluetooth wakeup process.
