Abstract
In systems and methods of wireless device communication using carrier priority, it is determined for a wireless device using a lower priority carrier that a signal strength of a higher priority carrier meets a signal strength criteria. It is further determined that a loading of the higher priority carrier meets a loading criteria. When the loading meets the loading criteria and the signal strength meets the signal strength criteria, a handover is performed of the wireless device from the lower priority carrier to the higher priority carrier.
