Abstract
Disclosed are methods, systems, and computer-readable medium to perform operations for selecting a device to prioritize for a high power link. The operations include detecting, in proximity of a mobile device, a first and second available devices. The operations also include establishing a respective connection with each of the first and second available device using a first radio access technology (RAT). Further, the operations include determining, using the respective connections, one or more metrics associated with first available device and the second available device, where the one or metrics comprise a respective angle of arrival at the mobile device corresponding to the first available device and the second available device. Further, the operations include determining, based at least on the one or more metrics, to establish a high power link with the first available device using a second RAT, where the second RAT utilizes more power than the first RAT.
