Conditional wireless communication channel for a wireless communication device

A wireless communication device comprising:

• a processing system configured to store initial data in a first wireless channel table that associates a geographic identifier, a network availability signal, and a first wireless communication channel;
• and
• a wireless communication interface configured to receive new data that associates the geographic identifier, the network availability signal, and a second wireless communication channel;
• the processing system configured to compare the initial data to the new data to determine that the first wireless communication channel associated with the geographic identifier in the initial data changed to the second wireless communication channel associated with the geographic identifier in the new data, generate a conditional statement that directs the wireless communication device to utilize the first wireless communication channel for the geographic identifier if a performance metric of the second wireless communication channel fails to meet a performance standard, and store the conditional statement along with the new data that associates the geographic identifier, the network availability signal, and the second wireless communication channel in a second wireless channel table.

A method of operating a wireless communication device, the method comprising:

• storing initial data in a first wireless channel table that associates a geographic identifier, a network availability signal, and a first wireless communication channel;
• receiving new data that associates the geographic identifier, the network availability signal, and a second wireless communication channel;
• comparing the initial data to the new data to determine that the first wireless communication channel associated with the geographic identifier in the initial data changed to the second wireless communication channel associated with the geographic identifier in the new data;
• storing historical data associated with a performance of the first wireless communication channel for the geographic identifier;
• determining a performance standard based on the historical data associated with the performance of the first wireless communication channel for the geographic identifier;
• generating a conditional statement that directs the wireless communication device to utilize the first wireless communication channel for the geographic identifier if a performance metric of the second wireless communication channel fails to meet the performance standard;
• storing the conditional statement along with the new data that associates the geographic identifier, the network availability signal, and the second wireless communication channel in a second wireless channel table;
• and
• reporting to a communication network when the conditional statement is triggered.
