Abstract
The disclosure relates to a low-power co-processor subsystem that can optimize power consumption in a wireless service platform having a main wireless application datapath, wherein the low-power co-processor subsystem may offload certain service discovery tasks from the main wireless application datapath (e.g., such that components residing therein can transition to a low-power state). For example, the service discovery tasks offloaded to the low-power co-processor subsystem may be determined according to protocol-specific service descriptions associated with one or more services to be provided and/or consumed at a wireless device. Furthermore, rules to wake the components in the main wireless application datapath may be dynamically defined and redefined or otherwise tuned to maximize the time that the components in the main wireless application datapath can spend in the low-power state and to determine conditions under which to selectively wake the components in the main wireless application datapath as needed.
