Abstract

A mobile determines the accuracy of the internal clock synchronisation based on periodical monitors network signals including the network clock, and selects the rate of monitoring based on the result. If the accuracy is within a predefined timing limit the mobile enters a sleep period to save power. The network clock time may be determined by reading the paging cycle, which may include channel readings, serving and neighbouring cell measurements. The different network signals may be monitored at different rates, but at least one may be equal to the split paging value.
