Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for detecting presence of a Bluetooth device in the vicinity of a WiFi device by sensing the spectrum of the Bluetooth device using a sequence of energy detection measurements, generating a test statistic based on the measurements and comparing the test statistic to a threshold.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for detecting the presence, in a first radio access technology (RAT) network, of a device that communicates via a second RAT, comprising: estimating a plurality of received power values of transmissions via the second RAT at a plurality of time steps during a network quiet time of the first RAT network to generate a first set of received power values; calculating a first test statistic based on the first set of received power values, wherein…
