Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
A power management scheme for use in a wireless device reduces the power consumption of the network interface module of the wireless device by selectively, putting the network interface module into a low-power state for an idle time. The, length of the idle time is calculated such that the amount of delayed traffic data, accumulated is expected to be less than or equal to a pre-selected threshold when the, network interface module is put in the low-power state for the calculated idle time. The amount of delayed traffic data as a function of the idle time is modeled using, average inter-arrival and service rates that are derived from traffic statistics data.

Why it's free to use
- Filed April 30, 2003. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended April 30, 2023.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by April 30, 2025.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
