Cooperative realtime management of noise interference in ISM band
First Claim
1. A communication interference management system comprising:
- a network interface that communicates with a plurality of spaced apart static transceivers through a network;
a processor coupled to the network interface; and
a memory coupled to the processor and storing program code that when executed by the processor causes the processor to perform operations comprising;
receiving measurement reports from the static transceivers, the measurement reports containing measurements of signals received from mobile transceivers operating within the network and measurement of signals received from proximately located ones of the static transceivers;
generating a layout map that identifies the distances and relative directions between the static transceivers;
controlling transmission power levels used by at least one of the static transceivers and the mobile transceivers, responsive to the content of the measurement reports and the layout map.

Abstract
An in-flight entertainment system includes a plurality of static transceivers and an ISM band communication interference manager. The static transceivers are configured to transmit and receive radio frequency signals in the ISM band. The static transceivers are further configured to measure signals received within the ISM band from mobile transceivers within the aircraft and to measure signals received from proximately located ones of the static transceivers, and to generate measurement reports containing the measurements and containing identifiers of the proximately located ones of the static transceivers and the mobile transceivers. The ISM band communication interference manager is communicatively connected to the static transceivers, and performs operations that include receiving the measurement reports from the static transceivers, and controlling transmission power levels used by the static transceivers and the mobile transceivers responsive to the content of the measurement reports.
