Abstract:
A device and method for altitude-based interference mitigation in an aerial vehicle. The device includes a transceiver, an altimeter, and an electronic processor coupled to the transceiver and the altimeter. The electronic processor is configured to determine, via the altimeter, an altitude level of the aerial vehicle, compare the altitude level to an altitude threshold, and, in response to the altitude level exceeding the altitude threshold, control a radio frequency characteristic of the transceiver to mitigate signal interference based the altitude level.

Claim (Index 11):
A method for altitude-based interference mitigation of a communication device of an aerial vehicle, the method comprising:\n determining, by an altimeter, an altitude level of the aerial vehicle; comparing, by an electronic processor, the altitude level to an altitude threshold; and in response to the altitude level exceeding the altitude threshold, controlling, by the electronic processor, a radio frequency characteristic of a transceiver of the communication device to mitigate signal interference of a data transmission based on the altitude level by\n determining, whether a signal quality of the data transmission exceeds an error threshold, \n determining an attenuation factor when the signal quality of the data transmission exceeds the error threshold, \n applying the attenuation factor to a receiver gain of the device, reducing the receiver gain, \n while the signal quality of the data transmission exceeds the error threshold, incrementally increasing the attenuation factor until the signal quality no longer exceeds the error threshold or until a maximum attenuation factor is applied, and \n tuning, when the signal quality continues to exceed the error threshold after the maximum attenuation factor is applied, the transceiver to a frequency offset from a center frequency to which the transceiver was originally tuned, \n wherein the attenuation factor is a magnitude, and wherein the maximum attenuation factor is based on a strength of radio frequency communication between the device and a radio base station.
