摘要:
A method and device which dynamically detects, tracks and filters interfering signals with sufficient speed (i.e. within one IS-95 CDMA data frame period, or 20ms) and fidelity to eliminate or greatly reduce the deleterious effects of narrow band interferor signals on a CDMA link. When inserted in an RF signal path an Adaptive Notch Filter (ANF) detects narrow band interferors above a threshold level within the CDMA signal. Detection is accomplished by continuous scanning of a preset excision band, e.g. a specified narrow band associated with an AMPS system. Detected interferors are then automatically acquired and suppressed. This is achieved by electronically placing a rejection notch at the frequency of the interferors. Multiple notch filters may be used to simultaneously suppress multiple interferors. In the absence of interferors a bypass mode is selected allowing the RF signal to bypass the notch. Upon detection of an interferor, a switch is made to a suppression mode where the interferor is steered through a first notch section and suppressed. Alternatively, an external control line may be used to select the bypass mode so that the signal is allowed to pass the notch section, regardless of interferor content.
摘要:
A system that incorporates aspects of the subject disclosure may perform operations including, for example, obtaining performance measurements, identifying a performance measurement from the performance measurements that is below performance threshold and, in turn, initiating corrective action to improve the performance measurement of an affected network element falling below the performance threshold. The performance measurements can be determined from measurements associated with signals generated by communication devices, noise levels in a spectral portion used by communication devices to transmit the signals, and interference signals exceeding an adaptive inter-cell interference threshold. Other embodiments are disclosed.
