Abstract
A wireless communication device may detect, within a specified time duration, at least a specified number of occurrences of a sequence of events, which includes the wireless communication device transitioning from a second cellular network operating according to a second radio access technology (RAT) to a first cellular network operating according to a first RAT, the wireless communication device failing to remain on the first cellular network for more than a specified time duration, and the wireless communication device returning from the first cellular network to the second cellular network. At least in response to this detection, the wireless communication device may determine whether to attempt future transition to the first cellular network while operating in the second network, based on one or more conditions, and/or may adjust one or more parameters used by the wireless communication device to determine when to redirect from the second cellular network to the first cellular network.
