Abstract
The disclosure provides for detecting interference in wireless communications. A wireless devices may receive an interfering signal on a portion of unlicensed spectrum. The wireless device may perform cyclic autocorrelation on the interfering signal to determine one or both of a cyclic prefix length and a symbol period. The wireless device may determine a radio access technology of the interfering signal based on one or both of the cyclic prefix length and the symbol period. In an aspect, the wireless device may further transmit an interference report including information regarding the interfering signal including the cyclic prefix length, symbol period, identified radio access technology, or packet length.
