  • Publication number: 20240276393
    Abstract: The interference control system provides a control device disposed in a public network with a resource application based on a message issued regarding use of a wireless resource by an interfering device disposed in a carrier network. A response based on a message issued by the control device in response to the resource application is provided to the interfering device that has issued the resource application. A repeater estimates, on the basis of interfered-with device information, an increase amount in the total amount of interference caused in each of used frequency channels of the interfered-with device in a case where the interfering device performs transmission in each of frequency channels with a prescribed transmission power. An estimation result of the increase amount is reflected in at least one of the resource application from the interfering device and the response to the interfering device.
