Abstract: A method and apparatus for a wireless device that can adapt a rate of related wireless network unit scans for adjacent networks is disclosed. In one embodiment, the wireless device can include a wireless network unit and a co-located geo-location signal receiver, and a processor. The processor can determine the position and speed of the wireless device from data received from the geo-location signal receiver. The processor can configure the wireless network unit to adapt the rate of related wireless network scans based upon determined speed and position. In one embodiment, the wireless network unit scans can be wireless scans for other nearby networks for roaming or location based services.

Abstract: A method for application-based radio access technology (RAT) switching is provided. The method can include engaging in data communication for the application over a connection to a first RAT and measuring a connection quality metric of the connection to the first RAT. The method can further include determining a threshold connection quality metric for an application. The threshold connection quality metric can be defined for the application and can be different from a second threshold connection quality metric defined for a second application. The method can also include comparing the measured connection quality metric to the threshold connection quality metric. The method can additionally include switching from the first RAT to a second RAT and engaging in data communication for the application over the second RAT in an instance in which the quality metric does not satisfy the threshold connection quality metric.
