Abstract
A client device may obtain a first measurement corresponding to a serving WLAN access point that uses a first channel. The client device may also obtain a second measurement corresponding to a target WLAN access point that uses a second channel. To facilitate intelligent wireless channel selection, the client device may weight at least one of the first measurement and the second measurement based on channel selection settings to obtain at least one weighted measurement. The client device may determine whether to roam from the serving WLAN access point to the target WLAN access point based on the at least one weighted measurement.
