Abstract
Methods and apparatus relating to controlling TDD scheduling on a network wide and/or base station, e.g., gNB, basis are described. Depending on the exemplary method being implemented, the method includes one, more or all of 3 processes which can be used alone or in combination. A first exemplary process relates to implementing and using gNB CSI-IM measurements to determine a new TDD schedule which can then be used by devices, e.g., gNBs and UEs in the network. The second exemplary process relates to implementing and using UE and/or gNB CSI-IM measurements to determine a new TDD schedule which can then be used by devices in the network and/or communicating interference information to base stations. The third process uses interference information determined at an individual gNB and/or received from another device in determining slots, frequencies and/or symbols to be assigned and/or used by individual UEs at the gNB.
