PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce interference between restricted access nodes and access terminals associated with macro access nodes.SOLUTION: Restricted access nodes are assigned to a designated common channel while access terminals that are in active communication with a macro access node are selectively assigned to the designated channel. In some aspect, an access terminal associated with a macro access node performs a handoff to a different carrier when the access terminal is in the vicinity of a coverage area of a restricted access node. In some aspect, an access terminal associated with a macro access node performs a handoff to a different carrier on the basis of location information. In some aspect, access to a restricted access node is controlled on the basis of policy and/or on the basis of operation of an access terminal associated with the restricted access node. |
