Techniques for uplink interference management for wireless networks are disclosed. In some embodiments, a system, a process, and/or a computer program product for inter-cell interference management for wireless networks (e.g., heterogeneous cellular networks) includes determining a plurality of strongest neighbor cells of a cell on a wireless network based on a plurality of measurement reports; and allocating a distinct frequency reuse pattern selected from a plurality of predetermined frequency reuse patterns to each cell for uplink cellular communication to facilitate inter-cell interference management.
