Scanning frequency selection for a wireless device
Methods, systems, and devices for wirelessly scanning frequency bands based on device location and/or mobility are presented. The method can include (i) scanning, by a mobile device and according to a first wireless scanning protocol, frequencies within first frequency bands that correspond to a first geographic region and second frequency bands that correspond to a second geographic region; (ii) determining at least one of an estimated location or an estimated mobility characteristic of the mobile device; (iii) determining, based on at least one of the estimated location or the estimated mobility characteristic, to adjust a scheduled time for the mobile device to initiate scanning according to a second wireless scanning protocol; (iv) and initiating at the scheduled time, scanning according to the second wireless scanning protocol.
