Abstract
Techniques for mitigating interference on the reverse link in a wireless communication system are described. Terminals interfering with one another and communicating with different sectors on the reverse link may be identified. The terminals may be scheduled in time intervals selected to mitigate interference. For example, each terminal may be scheduled on at least one pseudo-randomly selected time interval, on a pseudo-randomly selected interlace that includes evenly spaced time intervals, on a different set of at least one time interval, on a different interlace, etc. A terminal may receive an assignment of at least one time interval for transmission on the reverse link to a serving sector. The at least one time interval may be selected to mitigate interference to terminals in neighbor sectors.
