  • System And Method For Access Point Power Save
    Publication number: 20130148556
    Abstract: A power-save mode for a wireless access point is provided. The wireless access point can determine if other wireless stations are associated with the wireless access point. If there are no associations, then the wireless access point may enter a power-save mode. Associations may be determined by recent associations with the wireless access point or by media access control address activity. In the power-save mode, power may be reduced to at least one area of the wireless access point. In the power-save mode, the wireless access point may stop sending beacon signals. If the wireless access point receives a trigger signal, the wireless access point may leave the power-save mode.
