Flaw in testing Methodology?

While I don't pretend to be an expert - it seems to me that there is a flaw in the methodology for this test.

By definition, PSM is designed to save the battery drain during those periods where the radio is not needed for connection. By creating a continuous loop, with a standardised delay, the feature we are trying to test is actually being controlled.

In this test, EVERY delay between bursts was 3 seconds. In reality, this delay could be much longer, or much shorter. Setting a standardised sleep time is unrealistic, and the closer to 0 seconds the delay, the less the impact of PSM over CAM.

I would be interested to see if the results were replicated in a more realistic test scenario.
