The present invention provides a method of interference mitigation in a wireless communication system. The method that may include reducing transmission power associated with at least one first channel provided by at least one first base station associated with at least one corresponding first coverage area adjacent a second coverage area associated with a second base station concurrently with maintaining at least one transmission power associated with the second base station(s). The method may also include increasing the transmission power associated with the first channel(s) provided by the first base station(s) concurrently with reducing at least one transmission power associated with at least one first channel provided by the second base station(s).
