Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method, communication apparatus, and computer program product is provided for mitigating interference experienced by a wireless communication device, WCD ( 102 ). The interference is caused by signals transmitted by an interfering node ( 106 ). The communication apparatus determines information related to the interfering node ( 106 ). The communication apparatus selects, based at least in part on the determined information related to the interfering node ( 106 ), a WCD receiver configuration from a set of available WCD receiver configurations. The set of available WCD receiver configurations comprises i) a first WCD receiver configuration that mitigates only interference caused by physical signals transmitted by the interfering node ( 106 ) and ii) a second WCD receiver configuration that mitigates only interference caused by physical channels transmitted by the interfering node ( 106 ).
