Abstract
Certain embodiments herein relate to scheduling interference between wireless devices in a manner that reduced interference associated with full duplex communication. Signal strength and interference information associated with communication between wireless devices may be collected and forwarded to a processing device, such as a central controller. The central controller may utilize such information to generate a conflict graph that depicts interference relationships between the wireless devices. Using the conflict graph, the central controller may determine whether requested communications may be scheduled along with concurrently scheduled communications without resulting in interference affecting the communications. In one embodiment, a requested communication may be scheduled with other concurrently scheduled communications if the aggregated throughput is increased with the addition of the requested communication.
