Abstract:
A network device coupled to a network may be operable to receive an indication from the network that media access control (MAC) management messages will be transmitted by the network at fixed intervals. Subsequent to receiving the indication, the network device may be operable to power down one or more components of the network device and set a sleep timer to a value equal to an integer multiple of the fixed interval minus a transition period. The network device may power up the one or more components of the network device upon expiration of the sleep timer. The network device may power up the one or more components of the network device upon an amount of traffic in a buffer of the network device reaching a threshold.

Claim (Index 9):
A system comprising:\n circuitry for use in a network device coupled to a network, said circuitry being operable to:\n receive an indication from said network that contention opportunities will occur at predetermined intervals; \n transitioning to a power-saving mode in which one or more portions of said circuitry are powered down; \n transition out of said power-saving mode during one of said intervals, and \n periodically while operating in said power-saving mode, power up said one or more portions of said circuitry, resynchronize to a signal from said network, and again power down said one or more portions of said circuitry.
