System for and Method of Detecting Interference in a Communication System

摘要

A system for and method of detecting interference in a communication system. In an embodiment, a receiver acquires a communication signal, the communication signal comprising a carrier signal and an in-band interference signal. A signal processor conditions the communication signal and extracts the in-band interference signal without interrupting the carrier signal to form an error signal. The error signal is representative of the in-band interference signal. The signal processor is further configured to process the error signal to obtain one or more spectral properties of the error signal in a manner suitable for display.
