Examples described herein relate to an investigator device and a method for determining a condition of an antenna of an access point (AP). At least one investigator device may receive one or more antenna condition test frames transmitted via a plurality of antennas of the AP Further, the at least one investigator device may determine an average received signal strength indicator (RSSI) value corresponding to each of the plurality of antennas based on the one or more antenna condition test frames. A condition of the plurality of antennas of the AP may be determined based on a relative comparison between the average RSSI value corresponding to each of the plurality of antennas of the AP. Moreover, in some examples, the at least one investigator device may send a notification to an administrator of the AP based on the condition of the plurality of antennas.

A system includes a method for detecting a signal interference in a communication signal of a wireless communication system. An identified source of the signal interference is determined according to an interference profile of a plurality of interference profiles associated with an interference profile library having information that approximates characteristics of the signal interference. The signal interference of the communication signal is mitigated according to an interference parameter associated with the identified source by filtering the communication signal according to the interference parameter.

A base station (UE) is configured to perform a computer-implemented method for antenna fault detection and correction. The computer-implemented method includes acquiring one or more sounding reference signals (SRSs) received from at least one gNB antenna; detecting an antenna failure based on the one or more SRSs; estimating a noise power based on the antenna failure and a history of received SRSs; detecting a missing SRS based on the noise power and the history of received SRSs; and handling the missing SRS. Handling the missing SRS is based on performing at least one of: replacing an SRS measurement with a predicted SRS value for the missing SRS when the predicted SRS is available; or avoiding use of the missing SRS in a sequential SRS prediction when the predicted SRS is unavailable.
