In a communication system that includes at least a first base station (206) having a first geographical service area (12) and second base station (210) having a second geographical service area (16) that overlaps at least partially with the first geographical service area (12), a relaying mobile wireless communication device (202) receiving service from the second base station (210) receives and forwards scheduling information (204) to the second base station (210), where the scheduling information (204) is transmitted by the first base station (206) and identifies communication resources that will be used for wireless communication with the first base station. Based at least on the scheduling information, the second base station (210) schedules communication resources to mobile wireless communication devices (202, 212) receiving service from the second base station (210) such that interference is reduced, minimized, or eliminated. |
