Abstract
Techniques for performing interference reduction are described. In a design of an apparatus, system, method and computer program of the present disclosure, a mobile device may at least partially identify an interfering resource using at least energy received from the interfering resource, and the mobile device may report the interfering resource to a base station for mitigation of the interference. The identifying may include extracting, from the received energy, information distinguishing the interfering resource from other devices. The interfering resource may interfere in one of a communication time slot, and a communication frequency.
