Abstract
An interference estimation method and a communication device configured to estimate interference. The interference estimation method can include determining a first communication channel of a first uplink communication signal of a first communication protocol and determining a second communication channel of a second downlink communication signal of a second communication protocol. The method can further include: determining frequency spacing between the first uplink communication signal and the second downlink communication signal; determining the PSD of the transmit signal within the receiver bandwidth of the second downlink communication signal; and determining the transmit noise floor from the first uplink communication signal in the receiver bandwidth. Power integration terms can be determined based on the overall PSD of the transmit signal from first uplink communication signal within the second downlink communication channel. An interference estimation can be calculated using the interference power integration term(s).
