Abstract
Wireless communication apparatus is disclosed having a first base station providing an access point to a first communications network and second base station providing an access point to a second communication network. The first base station communicates wirelessly with a first access terminal using a first carrier at a first frequency and having a first bandwidth, and the second base station communicates wirelessly with a second access terminal using a set of carriers at respective different frequencies within a second frequency band, which has a second bandwidth larger than the first bandwidth and the first frequency is within the second frequency band. The second base station inhibits transmission of data by the second base station to the second access terminal using a subset of carriers having frequencies within the first bandwidth of the first frequency.
