1. A signal detection method, comprising:

  • determining a normalized measure of a first power within a first frequency band relative to a second power within a second frequency band of an input signal in a network gateway, wherein the first frequency band is within the second frequency band;

    comparing the normalized measure of the first power with a predefined power threshold to detect a presence of an anticipated signal in the first frequency band; and

    indicating a detection of the anticipated signal after the normalized measure of the first power is at least as great as the predefined power threshold for a period of time.
