Abstract: For interference control, a sector  m  estimates interference observed from terminals in neighbor sectors and obtains an interference estimate. Sector  m  may generate an over-the-air (OTA) other-sector interference (OSI) report and/or an inter-sector (IS) OSI report based on the interference estimate. Sector  m  may send the IS OSI report to the neighbor sectors, receive IS OSI reports from the neighbor sectors, and regulate data transmissions for terminals in sector  m  based on the received IS OSI reports. Sector  m  may control admission of terminals to sector  m,  de-assign admitted terminals, schedule terminals in sector  m  in a manner to reduce interference to the neighbor sectors, and/or assign the terminals in sector  m  with traffic channels that cause less interference to the neighbor sectors.
