US Patent 11310806 Drive test analysis

Systems and methods for detecting, identifying, and locating a source of radio frequency (RF) interference are discussed herein. An interference signal can prevent a user equipment (e.g., mobile phone, smartphone, or the like) from receiving a network signal altogether, can cause a temporary loss of the network signal, can affect the quality of the network signal received, or the like. The system allows for an interference source emitting the interference signal to be detected, identified, and located so that the signal can be powered off to clear a frequency band, thereby improving network service.
