Apparatuses and methods for simultaneously operating as a wireless radio and monitoring the local frequency spectrum. For example, described herein are wireless radio devices that use a secondary receiver to monitor frequencies within the operating band and prevent or avoid interferers, including in particular half-IF interferers. The systems, devices, and methods described herein may adjust the intermediate frequency in a superheterodyne receiver to select an intermediate frequency that minimizes interference. In particular, described herein are apparatuses and methods that use a second receiver which is independent of the first receiver and may be connected to the same receiving antenna to monitor the geographically local frequency spectrum and may detect spurious interferers, allowing the primary receiver to adjust the intermediate frequency and avoid spurious interferes.

A fixed wireless access network provides for high-frequency data links between aggregation nodes and endpoint nodes. The system further provides for lower frequency wireless data links, which have carrier frequencies less than high-frequency wireless data links. These lower frequency links provide for auxiliary communications between the aggregation nodes and one or more endpoint nodes. During normal operation, the nodes exchange packet data via the high-frequency data links. However, when impairment of the high-frequency data links is detected, the nodes direct the packet data over the low-frequency data links instead until the high-frequency data links are no longer impaired.

One general aspect of the present disclosure includes a device configured to perform communication. The device including: at least one transceiver; at least one processor; and at least one computer memory operably connected to the at least one processor and storing instructions that, based on being executed by the at least one processor, perform operations comprising: transmitting an uplink signal via two bands among a plurality of E-UTRA operating bands; and receiving a downlink signal via three bands among the plurality of E-UTRA operating bands, wherein pre-configured MSD value is applied to a reference sensitivity for receiving the downlink signal based on the E-UTRA operating band 66.

Methods, systems, and devices for channelizing a wideband waveform for transmission on a spectral band comprising unavailable channel segments are described. Generally, the described techniques provide for transmitting and receiving wideband waveforms when channels of a system bandwidth are unavailable for transmission. A transmitter may separate a first wideband signal into segments, with each segment a bandwidth corresponding to a channel of the system bandwidth, and may map the segments to the available channels. The transmitter may combine the mapped segments into a second wideband waveform and transmit the second wideband waveform using the available channels. A receiver may receive a first wideband signal waveform and may separate the first wideband signal waveform into segments, de-map the segments and combine the de-mapped segments into a second wideband waveform for demodulation. The techniques may be used to transmit and receive wideband waveforms over tactical data links.
