Abstract

The present invention generally relates to wireless communication, more particularly, but not exclusively to, threshold determination for inter-network interference coordination and for inter-access node (AN) interference coordination. According to one aspect of the present invention there is provided a method for determining a threshold for inter-network interference coordination, on the basis of which it is determined whether radio resource shall be coordinated between a first wireless network and a second wireless network, the method comprising the steps of: receiving interference levels for a plurality of wireless links associated with one or more wireless communication devices within the first wireless network, said interference levels being attributed to the second wireless network; and obtaining the threshold based on the interference levels.
