SUCCESSIVE INTERFERENCE MITIGATION IN AUTOMATED FREQUENCY COORDINATION (AFC) - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18301539 titled 'SUCCESSIVE INTERFERENCE MITIGATION IN AUTOMATED FREQUENCY COORDINATION (AFC)
The patent application discusses a method for mitigating interference in Automated Frequency Coordination (AFC) systems.
- Messages are received from multiple Access Points (APs) indicating the channels they are using.
- An indication is received when the Interference to Noise (I/N) ratio exceeds a threshold in a Fixed Service (FS) channel.
- The AP causing the high I/N ratio in the FS channel is identified based on its channel usage.
- Action is taken against the identified AP to reduce the I/N ratio.
Potential Applications: - Wireless communication networks - Spectrum management systems
Problems Solved: - Interference mitigation in AFC systems - Optimization of channel allocation in wireless networks
Benefits: - Improved network performance - Enhanced spectrum efficiency
Commercial Applications: - Telecommunications companies - Internet service providers
Questions about Successive Interference Mitigation in Automated Frequency Coordination (AFC): 1. How does this method improve the overall performance of wireless networks? 2. What are the key factors that determine the identification of the AP causing interference in the FS channel?
Original Abstract Submitted
Successive interference mitigation in Automated Frequency Coordination (AFC) may be provided. A plurality of messages may be received from a respective plurality of Access Points (APs). Each of the plurality of messages may indicate a respective channel used by a respective one of the plurality of APs associated with the message. An indication may be received that an Interference to Noise (I/N) ratio is above a predetermined threshold in a Fixed Service (FS) channel associated with an FS. At least one of the plurality of APs may be identified as a cause of the I/N ratio being above the predetermined threshold in the FS channel based on a channel used by the identified at least one of the plurality of APs and the FS channel. An action may be taken against the identified at least one of the plurality of APs to lower the I/N ratio.
