Abstract:
A method and apparatus can be configured to measure channel conditions of a first channel (310). The first channel can correspond to a first frequency. The method can also include predicting whether the channel conditions of a second channel are favorable for offloading communication occurring on the first channel to the second channel based on measurements performed on the first channel (320). The second channel can correspond to a second frequency. The second frequency can be higher than the first frequency. The method can also include determining a rate of occurrence for monitoring the second channel based on the results of the predicting (330).
