A communication system incorporates a method and a computer program product that provide selecting and camping on primary band in idle mode in preparation for supporting an anticipated data connection for demanding application(s) to a network system. The communication system scans, using a radio frequency (RF) communication subsystem, available network node(s) to assess communication capacity. The communication system identifies a combination of a primary band and secondary band(s) of the available network node(s) that satisfies a communication demand requirement of data throughput, data latency, and/or data quality. The communication system selects and camps on the primary band in preparation for activation of the demanding application(s) and configuring the RF communication subsystem to use the secondary band(s) to operate in carrier aggregation and/or dual connection mode to satisfy the communication demand requirement in preparation for activation of the demanding application(s) and establishment of the data connection.

Primary band selection by a carrier aggregation or dual connect aware communication device

A communication system, a method, and a computer program product provide selecting and camping on primary band in idle mode in preparation for supporting a predicted data connection for demanding application(s) to a network system. The prediction is based on trigger event(s) that include one or more of a configuration of a communication system, context of use of the communication system, and user interaction with the at least one user interface device. A controller of the communication system identifies, selects, and camps on a combination of a primary band and at least one secondary band of the one or more available network nodes that satisfies a communication demand requirement for the demanding application(s) using carrier aggregation and/or dual connection in preparation for activation of the demanding application(s) and establishment of the data connection with the communication network.

Primary band selection by a user communication system based on predicting carrier aggregation or dual connection

A communication system, a method, and a computer program product provide selecting and camping on primary band in idle mode in preparation for supporting a data connection for demanding application(s) to a network system. Preparation includes determining a communication demand requirement associated with the at least one application comprising at least one of data throughput greater than a throughput threshold and data latency less than a latency threshold. The communication system identifies, selects, and camps on the primary band in preparation for activation of the at least one application and configures the RF communication subsystem to use the at least one secondary band in preparation for activation of the at least one application and for establishment of the data connection with the communication network to operate in at least one of carrier aggregation mode and dual connection mode to satisfy a communication demand requirement.
