Abstract

A method and system for managing time segments per subframe used for downlink control channel communication by adjacent base stations. The base stations may work with each other to arrange for their respective use of different time segments per subframe for their respective downlink control channel use. Further, each base station may also avoid downlink traffic channel communication in the time segments per subframe that the other base station will be using for control channel communication.
