Abstract
An apparatus for logging and reporting network parameters within a portable communication device that includes a processor and a wireless module that may communicate with a wireless network such as a wireless telephone network, for example, via a wireless connection. The wireless module may determine characteristic information associated with the wireless connection and may provide the characteristic information to the processor. The processor may format the characteristic information for transmission and then transmit the formatted characteristic information to the wireless network. In addition, the processor may store the characteristic information within the portable communication device for future aggregation and transmission.
