Identification of External Interference in Downlink Direction in the Wireless Communication Network Using Channel State Information

A method, comprising:

• receiving, by a channel state engine from mobile devices, channel state information measurements reports responsive to requests sent to each of the mobile devices for a presence of external interference on at least one transmitting resource;
• determining, by the channel state engine, one or more interfered transmitting resources based on the channel state information measurements reports;
• locating, by the channel state engine, the external interference using triangulation data from the mobile devices;
• and
• instructing, by the channel state engine, one or more base stations to halt allocation of the one or more interfered transmitting resources to mobile devices that are proximate to or are at a location of the external interference.

A service provider system, comprising:

• a channel state engine;
• a performance engine configured to trigger the channel state engine when there is a presence of external interference on least one transmitting resource;
• and
• in response to the trigger, the channel state engine is configured to:
• receive, from mobile devices located proximate to a mobile device impacted by the external interference, channel state information measurement reports;
• identify one or more interfered wireless communications transmitting resources based on the channel state information measurements reports;
• determine a location of the external interference using triangulation data from the mobile device and the mobile devices;
• and
• inform one or more base stations to forego allocating the one or more interfered wireless communications transmitting resources to mobile devices that are proximate to or are at the determined location of the external interference.
