Techniques for scheduling users for transmission on the uplink in a wireless communication system are described. A cell may perform interference cancellation for uplink transmissions and may observe lower effective noise and interference due to interference cancellation. The lower effective noise and interference may allow the cell to operate with a higher effective target load, which may support a higher overall throughput for the cell. In one design, an effective target load for a cell using interference cancellation may be determined, e.g., based on a target rise-over-thermal (RoT) for the cell and an interference cancellation efficiency factor. An available load for the cell may be determined based on the effective target load, which may be higher than a target load for the cell without interference cancellation. Users in the cell may then be scheduled for transmission on the uplink based on the available load.
