In interacting dark energy models, the interaction term becomes independent of the constant dark energy equation of state at a specific redshift (about z=1.4), giving a point where the interaction can be observed without that degeneracy.

abstract
Non-canonical scaling of the form $\rho_{x} \propto \rho_{m} a^{\xi}$, where $\rho_{x}$ and $\rho_{m}$ are the energy densities of dark energy and dark matter, respectively, provides a natural way to address the coincidence problem -why the two densities are comparable today. This non-canonical scaling is achieved by a suitable interaction between the dark components. We study the observational constraints imposed on such models from the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy spectrum. Using the recent WMAP results for the location of the CMB peaks, we determine the admissible parameter space and find that interacting models are well consistent with current observational bounds.

The model-independent degeneracy-breaking point in cosmological models with interacting Dark Energy and Dark Matter
In interacting dark energy models, the interaction term becomes independent of the constant dark energy equation of state at a specific redshift (about z=1.4), giving a point where the interaction can be observed without that degeneracy.
