METHOD FOR POWER MANAGEMENT AND POWER MANAGEMENT CONTROLLER FOR A RADIO RECEIVER

摘要

A method (200) for power management in a radio receiver includes: receiving (201) a sequence of radio subframes over a radio channel, each radio subframe comprising at least one control region and at least one data region; monitoring (202) control information from at least one control region of at least one radio subframe; generating (203) a channel metric based on the monitored control information, the channel metric indicating a quality of the radio channel; and selecting (204) a control region decoding mode based on the channel metric, the control region decoding mode indicating a scheduling for disabling reception of at least part of the at least one data region of the sequence of radio subframes.
