Assignee: T-MOBILE USA, INC.
Field: Digital communication (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 0:
1. A system for avoiding signal interference at an incumbent station, the system comprising:
an antenna configured to output a test signal in a particular direction and to receive a confirmation signal;
a transceiver positioned near or on the incumbent station, the transceiver configured to:
receive the test signal from the antenna, and
output the confirmation signal in response to receiving the test signal;

a controller in communication with the antenna, the controller configured to:
transmit instructions to the antenna to output the test signal,
determine a strength of the confirmation signal received by the antenna,
determine whether the strength of the confirmation signal meets a transmission criterion or parameter, and
when the determination that the strength of the confirmation signal meets the transmission criterion or parameter:
identify or receive data that includes the particular direction of the test signal, and
cause the antenna to output network signals so as to avoid the particular direction of the test signal such that the output network signals avoid the incumbent station in response to the confirmation signal meeting the transmission criterion or parameter.
