Abstract
A method and a mobile device for limiting uplink transmission for user data at the data service level are provided. At least one least one characteristic related to uplink transmission is monitored and uplink transmission for user data is limited at the data service level based at least in part on the at least one characteristic. Battery power can potentially be saved by limiting uplink transmission for user data at the data service level when uplink transmission is unlikely to be successful.
