Abstract
Systems and methods for evaluating link performance over a multitude of frequencies for Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) optimization and mitigating interference. The methods comprise: communicating, from a first communication device, a first signal over a given channel in a given frequency band; receiving, by the first communication device, spectral power measurements and a Signal-to-Total Power Ratio (STPR) estimate determined based on a second signal including the first signal combined with at least one of noise and one or more interference signals (the STPR estimate accounts for the receiver performance including chip rate processing gain and/or the performance of an interference cancellation circuit used to remove the interference signals from the second signal); and determining, by the first communication device, a predicted Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) condition for a plurality of frequencies within the given frequency band using the STPR estimate and the spectral power measurements.
