Abstract

A mobile station (100) maintains a preferred bandmap (106) and a fixed bandmap (104). Upon powering up the mobile station, the mobile station begins scanning frequencies listed in the preferred bandmap. The strength of each detected carrier signal is measured, and the mobile station connect to the serving cell having the strongest carrier signal. The preferred bandmap is maintained by placing the frequency of the most recently connected serving cell at the head of the list, and moving other frequencies down the list as other are added or rotated to the top of the list.
