1. A method of determining channel conditions at an electronic device, the method comprising:
- periodically, according to a first period, determining a channel condition of at least one channel;
determining a condition of the electronic device;
selecting a second period different from the first period based at least in part on the determined condition of the electronic device; and
periodically, according to the second period, determining the channel condition of the at least one channel.

Abstract
Systems and methods for signal detection are dynamic cell searching are disclosed. In one embodiment, the period according to which a channel is monitored is dynamically adjusted according to a condition of an electronic device. In another embodiment, between a first and second monitoring of a channel of a first cell, the amount of time searching for an second cell is dynamically adjusted according to a charging condition of an electronic device.
