Abstract

A network and method for wireless communications are provided. A first network element in the network may transmit a first reservation signal to reserve a channel. The first reservation signal may at least partially overlap a second reservation signal transmitted by a second network element for channel reservation. The first network element and the second network element share the same channel. The first network element may also perform interference cancellation to cancel the second reservation signal transmitted by the second network element for carrier sensing.
