ABSTRACT:
Apparatus, and an associated method, for selecting whether to authorize connection of a mobile station to communicate by way of a communication network. Radio frequency uncertainty, such as at coverage area boundaries, is managed to control better the selection. Signals broadcast by the communication system are monitored and signal performance metrics of the signals are identified. Average values of the performance metrics are identified, and rates of change of the performance metrics are calculated. When the average values are beyond a selected threshold and the rates of change are positive, authorization is granted to permit the connection of the mobile station to the communication network.
