Abstract

A method and apparatus for operation in a multi-frequency band wideband system in the presence of an interference, the method comprising the steps: receiving signaling in a plurality of wideband frequency sub-bands, each wideband frequency sub-band having a different center frequency, wherein a bandwidth of each wideband frequency sub-band is at least 2 percent of a center frequency of the wideband frequency sub-band; detecting an interfering signal having signal energy in a portion of a respective sub-band of the wideband frequency sub-bands; modifying at least one of a center frequency and a bandwidth of the respective sub-band in order to operate in the presence of the interfering signal; and instructing a transmitting device transmitting the signaling to transmit subsequent signaling accounting for the modification of the center frequency of the respective sub-band.
