Field: Digital communication (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 13:
14. A system for avoiding signal interference at an incumbent station, the system comprising:
an antenna configured to:
output a plurality of test signals, and receive a plurality of confirmation signals;

a transceiver positioned near or on the incumbent station, the transceiver configured to:
receive the plurality of test signals from the antenna,
generate the plurality of confirmation signals based respectively on the plurality of test signals, wherein strengths of the plurality of confirmation signals are based respectively on strengths of the plurality of test signals received at the transceiver, and
output the plurality of confirmation signals;

a controller in communication with the antenna, the controller configured to:
determine respective strengths of the plurality of confirmation signals received at the antenna,
determine a direction of a test signal among the plurality of test signals that corresponds to the strongest confirmation signal among the plurality of confirmation signals, and
cause the antenna to output network signals in directions that do not correspond to the strongest confirmation signal.
