METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR HANDLING INTERFERENCE CONNECTION TYPES IN CITIZENS BROADBAND RADIO SERVICE DEVICES BAND

A method and network node for classification of interference connections between Citizens Broadband Radio Service Devices, CBSDs, in a wireless communication network are provided. According to one aspect, a method includes calculating an interference level, the calculation being based on whether two interfering CBSDs are operating in one of the alternate channels, adjacent channels and the same channel. The method also includes comparing the calculated interference level to a threshold to determine a classification of an interference connection.
