Reducing interference by combining signals at different strengths and transmitting the combined signal from an antenna

A method, comprising:

• receiving, by network equipment comprising a processor, a first signal from a source of satellite radio signals;
• receiving a second signal from network core equipment of a cellular data network;
• selecting a first signal strength based on an amount of interference reduction to be achieved between the first signal and the second signal at a time when the first signal and the second signal are broadcast, wherein the first signal comprises a satellite radio signal, wherein the second signal comprises a bidirectional cellular network data signal of the cellular data network, and wherein selecting the first signal strength is further based on mitigating at least a part of interference for a received part of the bidirectional cellular network data signal;
• combining, by the network equipment, the first signal with the second signal resulting in a combined signal, wherein the first signal is combined using the first signal strength and the second signal is combined using a second signal strength different from the first signal strength;
• and
• broadcasting, by an antenna of the network equipment, to a satellite radio receiver in a first geographic location and a user equipment of the cellular data network in a second geographic location, the combined signal, wherein the first geographic location and second geographic location are different geographic locations.

A non-transitory machine-readable medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor of network equipment, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:

• receiving a first signal from a source of satellite radio signals;
• receiving a second signal from network core equipment of a cellular data network;
• based on a specified amount of interference reduction to be achieved between the first signal and the second signal, selecting a different signal strength to apply to the first signal than a signal strength to apply the second signal, wherein the first signal comprises a satellite radio signal, wherein the second signal comprises a bidirectional cellular network data signal of the cellular data network, and wherein selecting the different signal strength to apply to the first signal is further based on mitigating at least part of interference associated with a received part of the bidirectional cellular network data signal at a time when the first signal and the second signal are broadcast;
• combining the first signal with the second signal resulting in a combined signal, wherein the first signal is combined using the different signal strength than the signal strength applied to the second signal;
• and
• broadcasting by antenna equipment of the network equipment, to a satellite radio receiver in a first geographic location and a user equipment of the cellular data network in a second geographic location, the combined signal, wherein the first geographic location and second geographic location are different geographic locations.
