Abstract
Decreasing battery power consumption in a mobile communication device by reducing transmission power is provided. In response to a cellular communication tower detecting a state of the mobile communication device communicating wirelessly, the cellular communication tower directs the mobile communication device to reduce the transmission power of the mobile communication device to decrease the battery power consumption in the mobile communication device. The state of the mobile communication device receives information at a first rate and sends information at a second rate below a threshold.
