Techniques for transmitting and detecting for overhead channels and signals in a wireless network are described. In an aspect, a base station may blank (i.e., not transmit) at least one overhead transmission on certain resources in order to detect for the at least one overhead transmission of another base station. In one design, the base station may (i) send the overhead transmission(s) on a first subset of designated resources and (ii) blank the overhead transmission(s) on a second subset of the designated resources. The designated resources may be resources on which the overhead transmission(s) are sent by macro base stations. The base station may detect for the overhead transmission(s) from at least one other base station on the second subset of the designated resources. In another aspect, the base station may transmit the overhead transmission(s) on additional resources different from the designated resources. |
