Abstract

Embodiments include exemplary methods for CLI mitigation. The methods comprise receiving (1310), from at least one sending network node, a TDD configuration of the at least one sending network node, the TDD configuration identifying at least one slot of the TDD configuration as either a fixed uplink slot or a fixed downlink slot, and at least one slot of the TDD configuration as a flexible slot for which at least one symbol has an undefined transmission direction and the remaining symbols of the slot, if any, have a defined transmission direction. The methods also comprise adapting (1320) operations in a cell based on the received TDD configuration for mitigating CLI with the at least one sending network node. Embodiments also include network nodes configured to perform the exemplary methods and/or procedures.
