Centralized intercell interference coordination

Apparatus comprising:

• at least one processor and at least one memory including a computer program code, and the at least one processor, with the at least one memory and the computer code being arranged to cause the apparatus at least to:
• monitor if a first cell receives one or more scheduling mode indications including a first scheduling mode indication for at least one of a downlink transmission of the first cell and an uplink transmission to the first cell, wherein the first scheduling mode indication comprises forbidding to schedule a respective resource for the at least one of the downlink transmission and the uplink transmission;
• and
• forbid, for the first scheduling mode indication, a scheduler of the first cell to schedule the respective resource for the at least one of the downlink transmission and the uplink transmission if the one or more scheduling mode indications are received.

Apparatus comprising:

• at least one processor and at least one memory including a computer program code, and the at least one processor, with the at least one memory and the computer code being arranged to cause the apparatus at least to
• monitor if a first cell receives one or more scheduling mode indications for at least one of a downlink transmission of the first cell and an uplink transmission to the first cell, wherein each of the one or more scheduling mode indications comprise allowing to schedule a respective resource for the at least one of the downlink transmission and the uplink transmission;
• and
• check if at least one of the one or more scheduling mode indications allows to schedule a first resource for the at least one of the downlink transmission and the uplink transmission if the first cell receives the one or more scheduling mode indications;
• and
• forbid a scheduler of the first cell to schedule the first resource for the at least one of the downlink transmission and the uplink transmission if none of the one or more scheduling mode indications allows to schedule the first resource for the at least one of the downlink transmission and the uplink transmission.

Apparatus comprising:

• at least one processor and at least one memory including a computer program code, and the at least one processor, with the at least one memory and the computer code being arranged to cause the apparatus at least to:
• obtain for each of one or more cells for at least a respective one of a downlink transmission of the respective cell and an uplink transmission to the respective cell respective one or more scheduling mode indications including a respective first scheduling mode indication;
• wherein each of the first scheduling mode indications comprises either forbidding or allowing to schedule a respective resource for the at least one of the downlink transmission of the respective cell and the uplink transmission to the respective cell;
• and
• transmit, for each of the one or more cells, the respective one or more scheduling mode indications to the respective cell.

Method, comprising

• obtaining for each of one or more cells for at least a respective one of a downlink transmission of the respective cell and an uplink transmission to the respective cell respective one or more scheduling mode indications including a respective first scheduling mode indication;
• wherein each of the first scheduling mode indications comprises either forbidding or allowing to schedule a respective resource for the at least one of the downlink transmission of the respective cell and the uplink transmission to the respective cell;
• and
• the method further comprises
• transmitting, for each of the one or more cells, the respective one or more scheduling mode indications to the respective cell.
