contents Spectrum sharing and dynamic spectrum reuse are becoming increasingly critical in modern wireless networks to address spectrum scarcity. However, these techniques inevitably increase Cross-Technology Interference (CTI). In this context, the Open Radio Access Network (O-RAN), as a modern and disaggregated network architecture, necessitates accurate, low-latency, and computationally efficient CTI classification and mitigation to support real-time control and maintain Quality of Service (QoS). Unfortunately, existing solutions predominantly rely on high-complexity, monolithic deep learning-based solutions that, while achieving high classification accuracy, incur significant latency and computational overhead This paper exploits the O-RAN functional split to leverage multi-domain raw signal representations (time, frequency, and Channel State Information (CSI)) directly from the same data stream. Each domain is processed locally, naturally interleaving CTI within the distributed, disaggregated O-RAN architecture. This distributed strategy enables a cost-aware, multi-domain fusion architecture that balances classification accuracy with computational overhead and latency. Our proposed multi-domain distributed architecture achieves a 400 $μs$ inference latency on standard CPUs. Compared to a state-of-the-art monolithic frequency-domain classifier, this represents an average 9x reduction in latency and an 11-fold decrease in computational cost, while sacrificing only 4% in classification performance and maintaining >90% accuracy in high-interference conditions.
