Inventor: DALAL ANAND
IPC: G06F1/32
Filed: 2012-03-06
Abstract: In a network comprising a host device (eg. an applications processor, 110, fig. 1) and a client device (130, fig. 1) connected via a communications channel (150, fig. 1), which may all reside in a â  networkâ   on the same device (eg. a smartphone 100), the host suspends (eg. places in low-power mode) communications on the link when a polling request from the host returns a suspend request (eg. a negative acknowledgement or NAK) from the client.
