Usage based radio access technology selection

1. A method, comprising:

storing, by a system comprising a processor, data that references a radio access technology associated with a first use of a wireless communication network;

in response to determining that a request for a second use of the wireless communication network is based on a change in a first condition associated with a signal quality of a communication channel of the wireless communication network, selecting, by the system for the second use, a generation of the radio access technology compatible with the change in the first condition; and

in response to determining that the request for the second use is based on a second condition with respect to a reduction of the signal quality that is compatible with the second use and in response to determining, based on the data, that a stored generation of the radio access technology associated with the first use is a later generation than a requested generation of the radio access technology associated with the request for the second use, selecting, by the system, the requested generation of the radio access technology associated with the request for the second use.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the selecting the requested generation further comprises selecting the requested generation of the radio access technology in response to detecting a registration of a wireless communication device associated with the request for the second use.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

updating, by the system, the data based on the second use.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the selecting the requested generation further comprises selecting, by the system for the second use, the requested generation of the radio access technology in response to receiving a request for a reselection.

5. The method of claim 4 , further comprising:

denying, by the system, the request for the reselection based on the data.

6. The method of claim 4 , further comprising:

granting, by the system, the request for the reselection in response to determining that the request for the reselection is based on the change in the first condition.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the selecting the requested generation further comprises selecting, by the system for the second use, the requested generation of the radio access technology in response to determining that the request is associated with a transfer of wireless communications to another wireless communication network.

8. The method of claim 7 , further comprising:

denying, by the system, the request based on the data.

9. The method of claim 7 , further comprising:

granting, by the system, the request in response to determining that the request is based on the change in the first condition.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the storing further comprises storing, by the system, the data in a removable data storage device communicatively coupled to a wireless communication device associated with the first use.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the storing further comprises storing, by the system, the data in a data storage device that is communicatively coupled to a network device of the wireless communication network.

12. A system, comprising:

a memory that stores executable instructions; and

a processor, coupled to the memory, that facilitates execution of the executable instructions to perform operations, comprising:

storing, based on a first use of a wireless communication network, information representing a first generation of a radio access technology associated with the first use;

selecting, for a second use of the wireless communication network, a second generation of the radio access technology that is compatible with a change in a first condition of a signal quality of a communication channel of the wireless communication network in response to determining that a request for the second use is based on the change in the first condition of the signal quality of the communication channel; and

selecting a third generation of the radio access technology associated with the request for the second use in response to determining, based on the information, that the third generation of the radio access technology associated with the request for the second use is an earlier generation than the first generation of the radio access technology associated with the first use and in response to determining that the request for the second use is based on a second condition with respect to a decrease of the signal quality.

13. The system of claim 12 , wherein the selecting the second generation of the radio access technology further comprises selecting the second generation of the radio access technology based on the information in response to performing a registration of a wireless communication device via the wireless communication network.

14. The system of claim 12 , wherein the operations further comprise:

determining whether a request for a transfer of a wireless communication to another wireless communication network is based on the change in the first condition of the signal quality of the communication channel; and

in response to determining that the request for the transfer of the wireless communication is based on the change in the first condition of the signal quality, selecting for the second use another radio access technology that is different than the second radio access technology.

15. The system of claim 12 , wherein the operations further comprise:

determining whether a request for a reselection is based on the change in first the condition of the signal quality; and

in response to determining that the request for the reselection is based on the change in first the condition of the signal quality, selecting for the second use another radio access technology that is different than the second radio access technology.

16. A wireless communication device, comprising:

a memory that stores executable instructions; and

a processor, coupled to the memory, that facilitates execution of the executable instructions to perform operations, comprising:

storing, based on a first use of a wireless communication network, information representing a first generation of a radio access technology associated with the first use;

sending the information directed to a device of the wireless communication network based on a request for a second use of the wireless communication network; and

communicating, during the second use based on a second generation of the radio access technology associated with the request that is earlier than the first generation of the radio access technology, other information directed to the device of the wireless communication network in response to a determination that the request is associated with a reduction of signal quality of a communication channel of the wireless communication network that is compatible with the second use and in response to a determination, based on the information, that the second generation of the radio access technology is earlier than the first generation of the radio access technology.

17. The wireless communication device of claim 16 , wherein the storing further comprises storing the information in a removable data storage device communicatively coupled to the wireless communication device.

18. The wireless communication device of claim 16 , wherein the storing further comprises storing the information in a storage medium communicatively coupled to a device of the wireless communication network.

19. The wireless communication device of claim 16 , wherein the communicating further comprises communicating the information in response to a registration of the wireless communication device.

20. The wireless communication device of claim 16 , wherein the operations further comprise:

updating the information based on the second use.
