802.11 supports the same thing. A STA (client) can tell an AP that it'll be going away for some time, and the AP will queue all traffic for the STA until it actively reports back. Broadcast traffic can also be synchronized to particular intervals (but low power devices are usually not interested in that anyway for efficiency reasons).
