<p>Provided are an apparatus for serving a network or device and a method for detecting a neighbor thereof in order to detect networks or devices which substantially interfere with each other, and manage resources in consideration of the substantial interfering relationships so that the networks or devices can efficiently coexist. To this end, according to an embodiment of the present invention, a method for detecting a neighbor by using an apparatus including a coexistence manager (CM) comprises the steps of: receiving, through the coexistence manager, a request from a television band device (TVBD) network or device served by the coexistence manager; obtaining, by using the coexistence manager, neighbor information on the TVBD network or device in response to the request; and transmitting, from the coexistence manager, the obtained neighbor information to the TVBD network or device, wherein the neighbor information includes an identifier of a neighbor TVBD network or device which interferes with the TVBD network or device.</p> |
