Abstract :
Location Alarm application notifying user of an alarm at the locations where user registered events causes serious battery drain because the current location should be continuously monitored with turning on the GPS or WPS. This paper proposes a scheme to extend battery life that minimizes the access to the GPS or WPS considering the user´s moving state recognized by various sensors in mobile device.
