Abstract
A method includes executing a user equipment (UE) device in a doze mode, a peek mode, and a normal mode. The doze mode includes terminating any connections with a network, comparing a clock time with a maintenance window schedule of maintenance time windows, and executing the peek mode when the clock time is within a maintenance time window. The peek mode includes receiving a connection request from a mobility management entity (MME) system when the MME system has been notified of at least one buffered downlink packet addressed to the UE device, and executing the normal mode in response to receiving the connection request. The normal mode includes establishing a connection to the network and receiving the at least one buffered downlink packet.
