Systems and methods for beacon detection infrastructures
A communication system includes an earth station configured to receive a downlink transmission from a satellite and transmit an uplink transmission to the satellite. The communication system further includes a server in operable communication with the earth station, a beacon detector in operable communication with the server, an access point configured to operate within a proximity of the earth station, and a beacon transmitter disposed within close proximity to the access point. The beacon transmitter is configured to transmit a beacon signal to one or more of the server and the beacon detector. The beacon signal uniquely identifies the access point. The server is configured to implement a measurement-based protection scheme with respect to at least one of the downlink transmission and the uplink transmission.
1. A communication system, comprising:
an earth station configured to receive a downlink transmission from a satellite and transmit an uplink transmission to the satellite;
a server in operable communication with the earth station;
a beacon detector in operable communication with the server;
a plurality of access points, each access point of the plurality of access points including a beacon transmitter disposed within close proximity thereto, wherein each respective beacon transmitter is configured to transmit, to one or more of the server and the beacon detector, a beacon signal that uniquely identifies the access point,
wherein the server is configured to implement a self-calibrating measurement-based protection scheme with respect to at least one of the downlink transmission and the uplink transmission, wherein the self-calibrating measurement-based protection scheme is configured to (i) dynamically collect the respective beacon signals over time, and (ii) automatically update and calibrate the self-calibrating measurement-based protection scheme according to the dynamically collected beacon signals.
