Abstract

A method for detecting a neighboring BS interference is provided. The method includes the following steps. A base station (BS) informs a coexistence signaling interval information to a subscriber station (SS) in a wireless access system. The SS obtains a silent period in a coexistence signaling interval from the coexistence signaling interval information, and monitors an interference information from a neighboring BS during the silent period. The SS reports the monitored interference information to the BS. A device for detecting a neighboring BS interference, a method for identifying an interferential neighboring BS and a device thereof are further provided. The problem of resource conflict raised when two BSs which originally are not neighboring BSs become neighboring BSs because of changes of a SS's status, or SS's position and environmental conditions, is solved.
