SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING INTELLIGENT NETWORK ACCESS SELECTION FOR A MOBILE WIRELESS DEVICE

摘要

The present teachings relate to a method implemented by a mobile device having a first radio and a second radio, the method comprising: using the first radio in a first connection; determining to turn on the second radio based on an expiration of a wake-up interval; shortening or lengthening the wake-up interval based on one or more factors; and, when the wake-up interval expires, turning on the second radio, using the second radio to perform a scan of the environment to identify available access points, determining whether to establish a connection with an identified access point, and establishing a second connection with the identified access point using the second radio when it has been determined to establish a connection with the identified access point.
