Abstract

A mobile terminal according to the present invention includes data analyzer analyzing content that makes up a web page received from a server connected to a network via a base station, display unit displaying the web page, and channel transition controller adjusting the timing to transit to a standby mode which consumes a smaller amount of electric power than in a present mode based on the result of the analysis made by the data analyzer.

Claims (28)

1. A mobile terminal comprising:

a data analyzer configured to analyze content that makes up a web page received from a server connected to a network via a base station;

a display unit displaying said web page; and

a channel transition controller configured to adjust timing to transit to a standby mode which consumes smaller amount of electric power than in a present mode based on a result of the analysis made by said data analyzer;

wherein:

said data analyzer configured to have, as a target object to be analyzed, a length of a page at the time when said web page is displayed on said display unit and a number of links established in said web page;

said channel transition controller configured to determine a standby time which is the time when said web page is received to the time when said mobile terminal transits to said standby mode, based on information representing said length of said page, said number of links, a time per unit page length, and time per link; and

a wireless communication controller configured to activate fast dormancy function based on the standby time.

2. The mobile terminal according to claim 1 , wherein:

said channel transition controller configured to control said standby time so that the longer said length of said page, the longer is said standby time; and

said channel transition controller configured to control said standby time so that the greater said number of links, the longer is said standby time.

3. The mobile terminal according to claim 2 , further comprising:

an operation unit for a user to enter a command;

wherein said channel transition controller configured to change changes said standby time determined based on said result of the analysis made by said data analyzer, depending on content of an operation performed on said operation unit by said user.

4. The mobile terminal according to claim 1 , further comprising:

an operation unit for a user to enter a command;

wherein said channel transition controller configured to change said standby time determined based on said result of the analysis made by said data analyzer, depending on content of an operation performed on said operation unit by said user.

5. A communication control method to be performed by a controller of a mobile terminal which includes a display unit, an operation unit, and said controller, comprising:

said controller analyzing content that makes up a web page received from a server connected to a network via a base station; and

said controller adjusting timing to transit to a standby mode which consumes a smaller amount of electric power than in a present mode based on a result of the analysis made by said controller,

wherein:

when said controller analyzes the content that makes up said web page, said controller has, as a target object to be analyzed, a length of a page at the time when said web page is displayed on said display unit and a number of links established in said web page;

said controller determines a standby time which is the time when said web page is received to the time when said mobile terminal transits to said standby mode, based on information representing said length of said page, said number of links, a time per unit page length, and time per link; and

said controller activates fast dormancy function based on the standby time.

6. The communication control method according to claim 5 , wherein

said controller controls said standby time so that the longer said length of said page, the longer is said standby time, and said controller controls said standby time so that the greater said number of links, the longer is said standby time.

7. The communication control method according to claim 5 , wherein said controller changes said standby time determined based on said result of the analysis, depending on content of an operation performed on said operation unit by a user.

8. The communication control method according to claim 6 , wherein said controller changes said standby time determined based on said result of the analysis, depending on content of an operation performed on said operation unit by a user.
