A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11888541B2) discloses a method and system for determining spectral interference in the context of setting up base stations. The method involves obtaining a spectral interference model for a first set of proposed base stations, calculating first modeled spectral interference values, updating the proposed base stations based on these values, obtaining empirical spectral interference values, comparing them with the modeled values, and updating the base stations accordingly. The system includes a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing executable instructions for obtaining the spectral interference model, implementing it, updating the proposed base stations, obtaining empirical values, comparing them with modeled values, and updating the base stations based on the comparison.

The method and system detailed in the patent aim to optimize the setup of base stations by effectively managing spectral interference. By utilizing a combination of modeled and empirical spectral interference values, the proposed base stations can be updated and refined to ensure optimal performance. The system's ability to define various parameters for each proposed base station, such as location, antenna height, transmission power, azimuth, and zenith, along with utilizing digital maps to describe the surrounding topography, enhances the accuracy of the interference model. Additionally, the system can transmit instructions for installing the updated base stations to installation personnel, streamlining the deployment process. Overall, the patent provides a comprehensive approach to addressing spectral interference in the setup of base stations, potentially improving network efficiency and performance.
