Abstract
Methods and apparatuses are provided for a portable device to minimize power consumption of its measurement engine while maintaining a desired level of accuracy. One such method forms a control loop, in which a value of a metric indicating a difference between the current estimated accuracy and the desired level of accuracy is calculated and then filtered to produce one or more filtered values. Using the one or more filtered values and current values of one or more modifiable measurement parameters, new values for the one or more modifiable measurement parameters are generated and then used to take the next measurement.
