Abstract

User equipment (UE) may determine a probability that a cellular network may allocate a resource block to the UE having a frequency that, when a cellular transmitter of the UE transmits a radio frequency (RF) signal using the resource block, a harmonic signal may be generated that interferes with a global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) signal received by a GNSS receiver of the UE. The probability may be determined based on a number of factors that may impact resource block allocation, including a location of the UE, a current date and/or time, a historical allocation of resource blocks (which may be crowdsourced), a client type associated with a signal to be transmitted, a signal environment at the UE, real world conditions, and so on. Based on the probability, the UE may selectively perform a mitigation procedure or transmit an RF signal without performing the mitigation procedure.
