Abstract
A wireless communication device comprises a wireless communication transceiver and a processing system. The wireless communication transceiver is configured to detect first and second frequencies transmitted from a wireless access node and to receive first and second threshold values transmitted from the wireless access node. The processing system is configured to determine a distance between the wireless communication device and the wireless access node, compare the distance to the first threshold value, and if the distance falls below the first threshold value, select the first frequency. The processing system is further configured to compare the distance to the second threshold value, and if the distance exceeds the second threshold value, select the second frequency. The wireless communication transceiver is configured to exchange wireless communications with the wireless access node using the selected frequency.
