4G & Awake Times

I just noticed that in the battery usage statistics line graph section that when ever the signal strength gets weak that the phone stays awake until the stength is back to full. Has any one else noticed this? Does your phone stay awake in order to search for stronger 4G even though it already has a connection to 4G?

There are no apps running in the background.
 
My phone very rarely ever actually goes to sleep. My signal strength is somewhat on the low side, but I can't say if that's what's keeping it awake or not. Until today, I was only on 3G (4G just got turned on today), but my battery life has been very poor, even with the extended battery. It's the cell standby that's killing mine, so it could very well be the theory you're proposing.
