Interference coordination between base stations

摘要

A base station for communicating with a plurality of user equipments assigned to the base station comprises a receiver (10) for receiving, from a first one of a plurality of user equipments, one or more identifications (12) of further base stations interfering with the first user equipment in a transmission resource of a plurality of transmission resources, and for receiving, from a further base station, a primary resource indicator 14 indicating the primary transmission resource for the further base station, in which a further user equipment assigned to the further base station would suffer an interference from the base station. The base station further comprises a transmission resource allocator (16) for allocating a secondary transmission resource to the second user equipment from the set of available transmission resources, wherein the set of available transmission resources does not include the primary transmission resource indicated by the primary resource indicator (14).
