  • Characterizing cable leakage interference priorities on LTE
    Patent number: 9100290
    Abstract: A method and structure for conforming to cable leakage compliance level requirements includes calculating, using a processor on a computer, a priority of repairs for cable leakage over a cable operator service area. A result of the priority calculation is provided, thereby permitting higher priority leaks to be identified and repaired. The calculating of priority includes storing geographical locations of cell towers affecting a service area being evaluated, receiving data related to cable leakage sources, receiving data related to wireless service quality, if available, and exercising, using the processor on the computer, a prioritizing algorithm that calculates a relative severity of each cable leakage source.
