Abstract: A method for a first network device involves transmitting, to one or more second network devices, an uplink message that includes an indication of a receive window time interval, and may also include an indication of a request for a downlink message. The method also involves initiating a scheduled receive mode that causes the first network device to transition the first network device to a first power state, and perform a receive window procedure after the receive window time interval has elapsed. The receive window procedure includes transitioning the first network device to a second power state and listening for the downlink message for a duration of time. The method further involves determining that an expiration condition has been met while the first network device is in the scheduled receive mode. Additionally, the method involves terminating the scheduled receive mode upon determining that the expiration condition has been met.
