Abstract:
1. An apparatus, including: a wireless communication module (WCM) to communicatively couple to a wireless access point; a power logic module to control transmission power of the WCM; a WCM transmitter coupled to the power logic module to transmit information to the wireless access point to disable an Automatic Power-Save Delivery (APSD) mode, the WCM transmitter to open a voice signal traffic stream as an uplink to the wireless access point, wherein the WCM transmitter is to transmit a voice stream on the uplink in an APSD mode; a WCM receiver coupled to the power logic module to receive information on a downlink from the wireless access point, wherein transmission of the voice signal traffic stream on the uplink triggers receipt of buffered voice packets on the downlink in a non-APSD mode; and an APSD logic module to establish a dynamic configuration mechanism to change from between the APSD mode and the non-APSD mode affecting voice signaling traffic at a beginning of the receipt of the buffered voice packets, wherein the WCM configures an access-category voice (AC-VO) for voice and an access-category IV (AC-IV) for signaling as trigger-enabled and delivery-enabled access categories in the APSD mode by transmitting an add traffic stream (ADDTS) control packet when opening the voice signal traffic stream, and wherein upon ending of a voice call, the WCM configures both the AC-VO and the AC-IV in the non-APSD mode by transmitting a delete traffic stream (DELTS) control packet.
