Abstract:
A communication device in a communication network includes at least one processor. The processor is configured to identify a first management information base (MIB) of a first occupied channel in the communication network, and a second MIB of a second occupied channel in the communication network adjacent the first occupied channel. The second occupied channel occupies a frequency band overlapping with an interfering signal band. The processor is further configured to calculate at least one proactive network maintenance (PNM) metric for each of the first and second MIB, and determine, from the calculated PNM metric, that an ingress of the interfering signal is detected on the second occupied channel.

Claim (Index 18):
A method for detecting an interfering wireless signal ingress on a cable plant of a communication network including at least one measurement device, the method comprising the steps of:\n obtaining a first management information base (MIB) criterion for each of at least two adjacent occupied channels of the communication network; identifying a signature of the first MIB criterion for each of the at least two adjacent occupied channels; comparing the first MIB criterion against a first threshold value; and determining, from the step of comparing, that the interfering wireless signal ingress is detected.
