Abstract

In an aspect there is provided a method of moving a processor of a mobile device from a low-power state for conserving power to an active mode for processing signals. The mobile device is configured to receive regularly scheduled signals. The method comprises, for each of multiple operating states of the mobile device determining a restore time associated with the operating state of the mobile device and storing each determined restore time in association with its operating state. The method further comprises detecting a current operating state of the mobile device and using the determined restore time for that state to set a trigger time to control movement of the processor of the mobile device to enter the active mode from the low-power mode in time to process the scheduled signals.
