Abstract
A method for detecting an interferer signal in a duplex communication channel. The method comprises establishing a duplex communication channel for transmitting and receiving a signal having a plurality of frames each comprising an uplink (UL) and a downlink (DL) sub frames, allocating a plurality of silent slots in at least on of the UL and DL sub frames of at least some of the plurality of frames, intercepting at least one transmission signal during the plurality of silent slots, and detecting at least one interferer signal according to the at least one transmission signal.
Claims23
A method of detecting interference in a wireless communication system where a base station communicates with radio port units over a communication channel, comprising:
- communicating wireless signals between the base station and the radio port units using frames, each frame including an uplink (UL) subframe with UL slots and a downlink (DL) subframe with DL slots;
- allocating one or more silent slots in at least one of the frames;
- intercepting an interferer signal during at least one of the one or more silent slots;
- and
- determining a measurement of the interferer signal.
A base station communicating with radio ports units in a wireless communication system, comprising:
- receiver-transmitter circuitry;
- an antenna for transmitting and receiving wireless signals using a frame with an uplink subframe and a downlink (DL) subframe;
- an interferer signal module for detecting an interferer signal during at least one silent slot provided in the frame.
