Nvidia patents method to adjust wireless power saving based on signal strength

Nvidia describes a technique where a processor chooses specific power-saving schedules for wireless connections. It selects these schedules by checking the quality of different signal beams and using an application programming interface to apply the best pattern for each.

Why it mattersThis could help devices conserve battery by only listening for data when the signal is strong enough to be useful.

In the filing’s own words

Apparatuses, systems, and techniques to select one or more discontinuous wireless communication patterns. In at least one embodiment, a processor includes one or more circuits to cause one or more different discontinuous wireless communication patterns to be selected based, at least in part, on one or more different beams with which to communicate the one or more different discontinuous wireless communication patterns.

What exactly they claim (claim 1)

1. One or more processors, comprising: circuitry to, in response to an application programming interface (API) call: obtain one or more wireless network metrics associated with one or more different beams; and cause one or more different discontinuous wireless communication patterns to be used with the one or more different beams, respectively, based, at least in part, on the one or more wireless network metrics.
