Application data traffic transmitted and received by wireless devices in a network may be mapped to channels based on traffic type and channel metrics. The traffic type may be classified by modality such as by voice, video, application sharing, instant messaging, emergency call, or any other application modality. The channels may be associated with characteristics that include, for example, a frequency band or channel metrics. The traffic types may be prioritized relative to one another and each may be associated with a hierarchical frequency band prioritization or a channel prioritization based on other channel metrics. A list of traffic types or modalities may be mapped to a list of available channels in a network by mapping channel characteristics to modalities based on modality traffic type prioritization, frequency band prioritization or channel metric prioritization. The mapping may then be utilized to control channel assignment for devices operating in the network. |
