Radio jamming detection

A user equipment being adapted for communication with a base node of a new radio network (RN) acting on a new radio bandwidth in a given area, wherein the new radio network uses a specific carrier design to provide synchronization signals to the user equipment, said specific carrier design implementing multiple subcarrier spacing to broadcast multiple synchronization signal blocks where no cell specific reference signal is used but where at least one of the synchronization signal blocks is a cell defining synchronization signal block,

• said user equipment being adapted to implement the method of to detect a jamming situation affecting a communication by:
• measuring the new radio bandwidth and, in case of detection of an energy in the measured band sufficient for decoding found synchronization signal blocks;
• attempting to decode at least a synchronization signal block in the new radio bandwidth,
• in the case no decoding is possible and in presence of an indication that new radio is deployed in this area, concluding that the user equipment is affected by a jamming situation,
• in the case a decoding of at least one synchronization signal block is possible, checking that a cell defining synchronization signal block is decoded,
• if no cell defining synchronization signal block is decoded, verifying if a part of the new radio bandwidth shows a high received signal strength indication,
• if yes, concluding that the user equipment is affected by a jamming situation;
• wherein said user equipment having at least a measurement module to measure the new radio bandwidth, a decoding module to decode received synchronization signal block in the new radio bandwidth, a processing module for implementing the steps of the method according to at least one of the preceding claims depending on measurements and decoding performed according to the thus implemented steps in order to conclude that the user equipment is affected by a jamming situation.
