METHODS, APPARATUSES AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR MANAGING DEVICE-TO-DEVICE INTERFERENCE

摘要

Various methods for managing device-to-device interference are provided. One example method includes receiving an expected interference level for a resource block, where the expected interference level is represented by data indicative of interference associated with the resource block due to device-to-device communications using the resource block. The example method further includes selecting the resource block for a device-to-device communications session based at least in part on the expected interference level for the resource block. Similar and related example methods and example apparatuses are also provided.
