    Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for estimating baseband power consumption and using the baseband power consumption estimation to select baseband operation features. According to some embodiments, one or more baseband power consumption modifiers occurring during an estimation window may be identified. Baseband power consumption of the wireless device during the estimation window may be estimated based on the identified baseband power consumption modifiers occurring during the estimation window. Baseband data throughput of the wireless device during the estimation window may also be estimated. One or more baseband operation characteristics may be selected based at least in part on the estimated baseband power consumption during the estimation window, possibly in conjunction with the estimated baseband data throughput during the estimation window, current wireless medium conditions, and/or other considerations.

    Abstract: A method and system are described for use in a portable electronic device that includes a wireless local area network (WLAN) subsystem, a cellular packet data subsystem for communicating packet data, a cellular voice subsystem for communicating cellular voice information, and a processing subsystem. In the described embodiments, the WLAN subsystem establishes a connection to a WLAN and the WLAN subsystem then determines the signal strength of the connection to the WLAN. Then, on condition that the signal strength exceeds a threshold, the processing subsystem selects the WLAN subsystem for the communication of packet data to and from the portable electronic device, and puts the cellular packet data subsystem into a reduced power state that reduces the power consumption of the cellular packet data subsystem. Packet data is then communicated to and from the portable electronic device using the WLAN subsystem while the cellular data subsystem is in the reduced power state.
