A mobile terminal is presented, having capability to determine when a user
should be stimulated toward an awake state. The terminal includes a
receiver for receiving a sleep descriptor signal indicative of at least
one sleep characteristic of the user, and also includes a signal
processing module for processing the sleep descriptor signal. The signal
processing module is arranged to provide, at least partly in response to
the sleep descriptor signal, a stimulation signal indicative that the
user should be stimulated. The mobile terminal is also usable for
communication by the user in the awake state. This invention further
includes a method, system, and monitor to be used with the mobile
terminal in order to stimulate the user toward an awake state.
