In the case where two wireless communication systems are located close to
each other and possibly interfere with each other, it is detected if
broad band interference takes place, and, when broad band interference
takes place, the use of frequencies is limited within such a frequency
range in which the wireless communication systems are little affected by
the interference. An interference detection system for detecting
interference between one system and another system in a wireless
communication making use of frequency division multiplexing is described.
The interference detection system includes a radio frequency signal
receiving unit; a signal level storing unit; a calculation result storing
unit; a threshold level comparing unit; and a carrier number storing
unit.
