Methods, communications devices, infrastructure equipment and systems

Infrastructure equipment of a wireless communications network operable to control cross-link interference, CLI, the infrastructure equipment comprising

• a transmitter configured to transmit signals,
• a receiver configured to receive signals, and
• a controller configured in combination with the transmitter and the receiver to
• detect a CLI priority indicator from other infrastructure equipment of the wireless communications network, the CLI priority indicator comprising an indication of a CLI priority level of the other infrastructure equipment,
• determine that a wireless transmission is to be communicated between the infrastructure equipment and a communications device in a coverage area provided by the infrastructure equipment,
• determine, based on a comparison of a CLI priority level of the infrastructure equipment and the CLI priority level of the other infrastructure equipment indicated by the CLI priority indicator, an extent to which one or more transmission parameters of the wireless transmission should be modified to reduce interference caused by the wireless transmission at the other infrastructure equipment, and
• modify the one or more transmission parameters of the wireless transmission in accordance with the determined extent of modification.
