Abstract

A method, an apparatus, and a computer-readable medium for wireless communication are provided. In one aspect, an apparatus is configured to determine whether radar signals are present on one or more channels. The apparatus is configured to transmit a channel feedback report that includes channel information for each of the one or more channels based on the determination of whether radar signals are present on the one or more channels. The channel information for each of the one or more channels includes at least one of a time at which radar signal detection was attempted, a frequency range of a detected radar signal, a set of radar signal characteristics, a received radar vector, a geographical location of the wireless device when radar signal detection was attempted, or an indication of wireless activity.
