US Patent 8428612 Apparatuses, systems, and methods for prioritized load balancing

A mobile communication device for prioritized load balancing is provided. In the mobile communication device, a wireless module receives data communication services and a broadcast message from a first service network. Also, a controller determines whether the broadcast message has load balancing information for the first service network and a second service network, and in response to the broadcast message having the load balancing information, generates a random number and determines whether the random number belongs to a restricted priority level according to the load balancing information. The controller further suspends a reselection from the first service network to the second service network, in response to the random number belonging to the restricted priority level.
