Is it possible to measure power consumption of a phone radio?

[AC Question]

is it possible to measure power consumption of phone radio?

I'm trying to figure out what network uses least battery when I'm home. 2g, 3g or 4g. Is it possible to measure this in mA in average per hour? Thanks!

Not really because you will have so many variations. If you just leave it on one network you can measure the drain with a good battery monitor like gsam. However, the variation between tests would be so great that your data would be null void.
