1. A method of cell selection in a wireless network for a device operating on a serving cell comprising:
- receiving a threshold;
prioritizing reselection to wideband code division multiple access neighbor cells if;
at least one wideband code division multiple access neighbor cell meets basic criteria for a suitable cell, and a computed value of a signal quality suitability criterion of the at least one wideband code division multiple access neighbor cell exceeds the threshold.

Abstract
An apparatus and method of cell selection in a wireless network for a device operating on a serving cell. A quality threshold is received. A selected radio access technology is prioritized for reselection if at least one radio access technology neighbor cell meets basic criteria for a suitable cell and a computed value of a signal quality suitability criterion of the radio access technology neighbor cell exceeds the quality threshold.

9. A mobile communication device comprising:
-
a transceiver configure to transmit and receive signals on a serving cell in a wireless network where the received signals include a threshold;
a controller coupled to the transceiver, the controller configured to perform cell selection in the wireless network; and
a radio access technology prioritize module configured to prioritize reselection to wideband code division multiple access neighbor cells if at least one wideband code division multiple access neighbor cell meets basic criteria for a suitable cell and a computed value of a signal quality suitability criterion of the at least one wideband code division multiple access neighbor cell exceeds the threshold. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
