  • Methods and apparatuses of network system with power saving functions
    Patent number: 8538359
    Abstract: A network system includes a wireless network device, a network control device, and a first controller. The wireless network device includes an RF unit for transmitting/receiving frames and a first connection interface unit. The network control device includes a second connection interface unit, wherein the second connection interface unit is coupled to the first connection interface unit via a transmission connection, in order to perform data transmission with the first connection interface unit. When there is no data transmitted via the transmission connection, the first controller turns off at least one of power supplies of the first connection interface unit and the second connection interface unit. The first controller may be disposed in the network control device or the wireless network device.
