System and method for evaluating candidate networks for mobile communication device data throughput

摘要

A system for, and method of, selecting one of at least two different candidate wireless communication networks for data communication by a mobile communication device and a wireless communication device incorporating the system or the method. In one embodiment, the system includes a network selector that employs the mobile communication device to perform data transfers between the mobile communication device and communication server associated with the at least two different candidate wireless communication networks and performs an evaluation of the at least two different candidate wireless communication networks based on at least one data communication quality parameter.
