Blind interference cancellation is described for wireless networks in which a subject base station or cancellation apparatus obtains semi-static information for at least one of its neighboring cells. The base station measures the noise level of each of the neighboring cells based on samples it takes of uplink transmissions in each of the neighboring cells. The neighboring cells are then ranked for interference cancellation based on their relative noise levels. The base station performs discontinuous transmission (DTX) detection to identify at least one interfering user equipment (UE) in the neighboring cell and cancels interference attributable to those identified interfering UEs. The DTX detection and cancelation are then repeated for the remaining neighboring cells in the order they are ranked. |
