This article describes comparison of two intelligent methods used for channel selection for MANET, 5G technology or 802.11 networks. The main point is to show how channel selection influences speed and quality of data routing in wireless, sensor or ad-hoc networks. The article shows the basics of new trends in multi access networks, where effective spectrum is not an option, but a requirement. The article compares differences between fuzzy logic and game theory in channel selection. Each of these methods has some advantages and disadvantages to calculate results. Simulation shows how channels can be assigned to each node in wireless networks based on input parameters. The process of channel and node selection is important in 5G technology and beyond with so many access nodes in networks.
