The global deployment of 5G NR TDD networks will take place in unknown radio environments. Exploration will be conducted manually as before, but automatic detection of interference signals will be helpful before the network starts operating. There are advantages such as being able to identify potential interference signals and their characteristics much faster than when using manual techniques. 【Three Advantages】 ■ Potential interference signals and their characteristics can be identified much faster than when using manual techniques. ■ Since data collection and data analysis are conducted separately, data collection, which is a time-consuming task, can be performed in a much shorter time by relatively less skilled personnel. ■ Experts from the interference exploration team can focus on pre-identified interference locations, increasing efficiency. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
