One method includes identifying a listen-before-talk (LBT) silencing criterion between each pair of wireless devices in a plurality of wireless devices; dividing the plurality of wireless devices into a plurality of independent sets based at least in part on the identified LBT silencing criterions; determining, for a location, an aggregated interference value for each independent set; determining an aggregated interference value for the location based at least in part on the determined aggregated interference values for each independent set; and selectively adjusting a wireless communication parameter of at least one of the wireless devices to alter the aggregated interference value for the location.
