Abstract
Embodiments include a method and apparatus configured to reduce interference. The method includes determining, by a user equipment, active and inactive subframes of a plurality of subframes associated with a wireless local area network (WLAN) communication. The method then includes performing relative signal quality measurements on the inactive subframes, and providing, to a base station, a relative signal quality measurement report based on the relative signal quality measurements performed on the inactive subframes.
