Abstract
There is provided mechanisms for mitigating interference in a communications network. A method is performed by a network node. The method comprises obtaining a packet. The packet has been wirelessly received in an uplink direction by a transmission and reception point of the network node and from a packet sender. The packet is indicative of scheduled transmission of a further packet within a predefined time interval from the transmission and reception point has wirelessly received the packet. The method comprises determining beamforming weights such that interference caused by transmission from the transmission and reception point of the network node in a downlink direction being reversed to the uplink direction is less than a threshold interference value. The method comprises initiating transmission in at least one beam using the determined beamforming weights. The beamforming weights are used for the transmission at least within the predefined time interval.
