Method to reduce interference between mobiles using different duplex technology

摘要

A method for reducing interference between a mobile station (10) operating in time division duplex mode and a mobile station (12) operating; in frequency division duplex mode comprising, scanning (40) available frequency division duplex frequencies for a handover (46) to a frequency division duplex system. If a frequency division duplex frequency is available, a handover is initiated to the frequency division duplex system. If no frequency division duplex frequency is available, time division duplex frequencies more remote from the interfered with frequency division duplex frequency are scanned (48). If a more remote time division duplex frequency is available, a handover to the more remote time division duplex system is initiated. (50).
