Expedited update of cached data for devices in standby
Various systems and methods are presented regarding synchronizing data transmission between various remote clients and respective local devices. By synchronizing data transmission from the remote clients with data receipt at respective local devices, operation of the local devices can be constrained to specific periods of time. A local device can be woken from a low power mode for a short period of time, cache data, and return to low power mode. By limiting the duration of operation for the local device to receive the data, the local device can quickly return to a low power mode upon data receipt. By synchronizing data transmission from the remote clients to the local device, the duration that the local device has to be awake can be reduced. With transmission synchronization, the local device can be placed into low power mode for longer periods compared to extended operation required receive randomly transmitted data.
