Hi and welcome to the community.  
Have you tried the sleep mode with cell connection on (NETWORK\_INTERFACE\_CELLULAR)?

> **[network() (SystemSleepConfiguration) - sleep() \[Sleep \] | Reference](https://docs.particle.io/reference/device-os/api/sleep-sleep/network-systemsleepconfiguration/)**
>
> Reference manual for the C++ API used by user firmware running on Particle IoT devices

I have never tried it myself but it seems it can help you.  
Cheers
