Mobile devices are increasingly assuming an important role in "Smart home" network environments. Although their computing, storage and networking capabilities have evolved significantly, these devices remain power-constrained and, therefore, need to actively take measures to minimize their power consumption. This paper proposes a Network Connectivity Power Saving (NC-PS) mechanism for mobile devices in Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) home networks, which allows them to conserve power without compromising their higher-layer functionality. The proposed mechanism introduces a level of indirection that abstracts the low-level low-power support of different wireless bearers and exposes a uniform interface to higher-layer entities, such as applications and Universal - Plugand-Play (UPnP) agents.
