SYSTEMS, APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR INTERFERENCE MANAGEMENT IN WIRELESS NETWORKS
First Claim
1. A method for facilitating interference management in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
- synchronizing a non-serving base station downlink subframe to a serving base station downlink subframe, wherein the serving base station downlink subframe is transmitted from a serving base station to a user equipment served by the serving base station, and wherein synchronizing is performed by a non-serving base station;
decoding one or more control channel symbols of the serving base station downlink subframe; and
determining information for performing interference management associated with the user equipment, wherein determining information is based, at least, in part, on the decoding one or more control channel symbols of the serving base station downlink subframe.

Abstract
Systems, apparatus, methods and computer program products are provided. In some embodiments, a method for facilitating interference management in an unplanned wireless communication system is provided. The method can include a non-serving base station synchronizing a non-serving base station downlink subframe to a serving base station downlink subframe, wherein the serving base station downlink subframe is transmitted from a serving base station to a user equipment served by the serving base station. The method can also include the non-serving base station decoding one or more control channel symbols of the serving base station downlink subframe; and determining information for performing interference management associated with the user equipment. The determined information can be based, at least, in part, on the decoded one or more control channel symbols of the serving base station downlink subframe.
