Claim 8:
9. A method of managing a cellular network implemented consistent with Open Radio Access Network (O-RAN) standards, the method comprising:
receiving from a first network device a first control-plane message requesting a first set of radio resources responsive to a scheduled uplink transmission from a user device, wherein the first set of radio resources comprises an assigned portion of a carrier signal allocated for the uplink transmission;
generating a second control-plane message requesting a second set of radio resources, wherein the second set of radio resources comprises a remaining portion of the carrier signal not allocated for the uplink transmission;
sending the first control-plane message and the second control-plane message to a second network device configured to receive the uplink transmission from the user device;
receiving from the second network device at least one user-plane message comprising first digitized data from the uplink transmission correlated with the first control-plane message and second digitized data from the uplink transmission correlated with the second control-plane message;
sending the first digitized data to the first network device, and not sending the second digitized data to the first network device; and
monitoring the carrier signal for interference sources using both the first digitized data and the second digitized data.
