Detecting interference between base stations and microwave backhaul transceivers
Techniques for detecting and/or mitigating interference in a wireless network are discussed herein. An environment may include a base station in communication with one or more user equipment (UE) and one or more microwave backhaul transceivers. In some examples, the base station may and transceivers may communicate using frequencies in the same band (e.g., a millimeter frequency band). A geometry of devices in an environment can be determined. Further, interference can be detected based on a flexible portion of a transmission or a source identifier that can be included in a transmission. In some examples, the microwave backhaul transceivers may communicate via a same or similar millimeter frequency resources. Wireless resource(s) can be selected or otherwise determined for one or more components of the network to mitigate interference in the network.
