Abstract
A remote unit of a distributed antenna system (DAS) includes: interface device configured to interface with an upstream component of the DAS; and receiver communicatively coupled to an antenna and configured to receive signals from at least one subscriber unit within a coverage area of the DAS. The receiver temporarily reconfigured to receive interference signals from an interfering device outside of the coverage area of the DAS. The interference signals cause a subscriber unit to establish a connection with the interfering device rather than the remote unit of the DAS. The remote unit configured to derive information about the interfering device from the interference signals. The remote unit configured to adjust at least one attribute to cause the subscriber unit to establish connection with the remote unit rather than the interfering device.
