Abstract: Methods and systems for detecting and mitigating the effects of time of flight interference of a radio frequency (RF) signal are provided. A wireless communication network may determine, based on one or more parameters being sufficiently different than a baseline value, that time of flight interference is occurring based on the undesirable propagation of a first cell's downlink signals into a second cell's coverage area. In response to the determination, the network may identify an offending base station and modify the RF transmission characteristics of the offending base station to prevent or mitigate the impact of the interference event on the RF signal's propagation.
