Abstract
A method, information processing system, and wireless communication system for dynamically assigning a communication channel to a wireless device. A request for a communication channel from a wireless device (108) is received. At least a current-drain profile (120) associated with the wireless device (108) is analyzed. The current-drain profile (120) indicates power consumption associated with the wireless device (108) for a plurality of channel frequency bands. A plurality of communication channels is analyzed with respect to the current-drain profile (120). A communication channel is selected from the plurality of communicating channels in response to the analyzing at least the current-drain profile (120). A communication channel assignment comprising the communication channel that has been selected is transmitted to the wireless device (108) in response to the selecting.
