Each time the scanning operation fails to result in any connection between the mobile device and a wireless network, the scanning operation is repeated after delaying for a next delay period of a plurality of scanning delay periods n = [n 1 , n 2 , ..., upper limit]. Initially, an upper limit of the plurality of scanning delay periods n = [n 1 , n 2 , ..., upper limit] is established at a value of M. During operation, the mobile device monitors to identify whether a predetermined battery condition, such as a low battery capacity or high battery discharge rate, exists. If the predetermined battery condition exists, the upper limit of the plurality of scanning delay periods n = [n 1 , n 2 , ..., upper limit] is reestablished at a value of N > M. If a more severe battery condition exists, the upper limit of the plurality of scanning delay periods n = [n 1 , n 2 , ..., upper limit] is reestablished at a value of P > N > M. Advantageously, power consumption is reduced during adverse battery conditions of the mobile device.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "description": "Access the complete Patent AT-E400148-T1: [Translated] METHOD AND DEVICE FOR REDUCING POWER CONSUMPTION DURING NETWORK SCANNING OPERATIONS IN ADVERSE BATTERY CONDITION on the official website.", "downloadURL": "https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/patent/AT-E400148-T1", "mediaType": "text/html", "title": "Official Data Source"}], "identifier": "https://healthdata.gov/api/views/a3b9-a9a6", "issued": "2025-09-05", "keyword": ["chemistry", "innovation", "patent", "pubchem", "research"], "landingPage": "https://healthdata.gov/d/a3b9-a9a6", "modified": "2025-09-06", "programCode": ["009:066"], "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI)"}, "theme": ["NIH"], "title": "Patent AT-E400148-T1: [Translated] METHOD AND DEVICE FOR REDUCING POWER CONSUMPTION DURING NETWORK SCANNING OPERATIONS IN ADVERSE BATTERY CONDITION"}
