Try to create a Timer:

Timer timer = new Timer();
timer.schedule(new TimerTask(){
    @Override
    public void run() {
        // do your thing here, such as execute AsyncTask or send data to server
    }
}, 1000, 900000); // starts your code after 1000 milliseconds, then repeat it every 15 minutes (900000 milliseconds)
