Abstract: Techniques for transmitting data include one or more processors of a computing device included in a network device identifying data to be transmitted, wherein the computing device includes the one or more processors, a queue, and a transmitter, and wherein the network device includes the computing device and a transceiver that is configured to transmit data outside of the network device; adding the data to the queue; and during an open data session window: transmitting, via the transmitter and to the transceiver, data extracted from the queue; and in response to determining that an amount of data in the queue is below a threshold, (a) delaying for a period of time, and (b) after the period of time, instructing the transceiver to end the open data session window early and transition to a lower power state.

Abstract: Techniques for transmitting data include identifying data to be transmitted, adding the data to a queue, and in response to a data session window being open: extracting the data from the queue; transmitting the extracted data to a transceiver via a transmitter; monitoring an amount of data in the queue and determining that the transmitter has transmitted the extracted data to the transceiver; and in response, instructing the transceiver to end the data session window early and transition to a lower power state.

Abstract: Techniques for transmitting data include a network device receiving a message, the message comprising data to be transmitted from the network device; storing the message in a buffer of the network device. During an open data session window, the network device: extracts the message from the buffer; and transmits, using a transmitter of the network device, at least data included in the message to a transceiver of the network device. The transceiver is configured to transmit the data outside of the network device. In response to determining that a header of the message includes a last message indicator, the network device: delays for a period of time; and after the period of time, instructs the transceiver to end the data session window early and transition to a lower power state.

Abstract: Techniques for transmitting data include one or more processors of a computing device included in a network device identifying data to be transmitted; and while a data session window is open: transmitting, using a transmitter of the network device, the data to a transceiver that is included in the network device and is separate from the one or more processors, wherein the transceiver is configured to transmit the data outside of the network device; and in response to determining that there is no additional data to be transmitted, (a) delaying for a period of time, and (b) after the period of time, instructing the transceiver to end the data session window early and transition to a lower power state.
