Systems and methods are described herein for managing beacon signaling in a wireless communication system. A method described herein includes identifying a neighboring macrocell and a time division multiplexing (TDM) channel offset of the neighboring macrocell, the channel offset corresponding to at least one of a signaling channel or an overhead channel; selecting a local channel offset that differs from the channel offset of the neighboring macrocell; and generating a transmission schedule such that first transmissions are omitted for at least a portion of transmission intervals of the neighboring macrocell; wherein the transmission intervals of the neighboring macrocell are identified according to the channel offset of the neighboring macrocell and wherein the first transmissions include at least one of pilot transmissions, medium access control (MAC) transmissions or traffic transmissions.
