Abstract
A wireless access point is described. The wireless access point includes a processor, memory and instructions stored in the memory. The wireless access point receives a sleep state command from a central controller. The central controller transmits the sleep state command based on movement of an electronic device in relation to one or more wireless access points located within a wireless network. The wireless access point enters a sleep state for a sleep period. The wireless access point transitions to an active state upon expiration of the sleep period.
