Sleeping VHF Receiver

Trying to research this and could do with some help! I have come across several papers that refer to this phenomenon but would be very grateful for some more help. It is obviously an issue!

It has come up fairly recently as part of another thread - a NORAD incident over Belgium, if my memory serves me correctly.
