Abstract
Systems and methods for enhancing spectral efficiency are disclosed herein. User equipment (UE) may be configured to communicatively couple to an Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network (E-UTRAN) Node B (eNB). The UE may be configured to cancel interference from an interfering eNB. The interfering eNB may provide transmission parameters to the UE. The interfering eNB may transmit a compact message indicative of the transmission parameters to the UE. The compact message may be a broadcast message. Some transmission parameters may be sent to the UE using higher layer signaling. The UE may be able to use the transmission parameters to cancel interference from the interfering eNB. In some embodiments, the interfering and/or serving eNB may indicate to the UE whether the transmission parameters are being broadcast so the UE does not search for them unnecessarily.
