1. A method comprising:
initiating, at a serving base station, scheduling for a resource element in a slot for a first user equipment (UE);
determining, by the serving base station, a neighboring base station associated with a second UE based on measurement data received from the first UE;
determining, by the serving base station, a type of interference associated with the neighboring base station and the slot, wherein the type of interference is identified based on conflicting cellular transmission types used by the serving base station and the neighboring base station;
identifying, by the serving base station, an outer loop link adaptation (OLLA) value associated with the type of interference based on a lookup performed using mapping of types of interference to corresponding OLLA values;
computing, by the serving base station, an effective data rate based at least in part on the OLLA value; and
completing, by the serving base station, the scheduling using the effective data rate.
