Publication number: 20230319798Abstract: Interference on control channels using shared spectrum is managed by a base station without the use of centralized spectrum control device. A base station monitors a plurality of alternative control channels and measures received signal strength energy corresponding to each of the plurality of alternative candidate control channels. A received signal strength indicator (RSSI) is measured for each channel-beam combination. An average RSSI value is determined for each candidate control channel. A candidate control channel can be, and sometimes is, removed from further consideration for selection based on one or more RSSI based exclusion criteria. Among the remaining candidate control channels, a control channel with the lowest average RSSI is selected. The base station uses the selected control channel to transmit control information via wide control channel beams and uses one or more of the other channels to transmit data via narrow data channel beams.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 4, 2022Publication date: October 5, 2023Inventors: Ramneek Bali, Elliott Hoole, Alec Hampton
