Abstract

A method, system, and apparatus is provided for interference calibration. A second mobile terminal may be configured to send timing information to a network interface in an uplink channel of a second communication system. The network interface may be configured to communicate with a first mobile terminal in a downlink channel in a first communication system; estimate the uplink channel using the timing information to form a channel estimation; and adjust the downlink channel to the first mobile terminal using the channel estimation.
