Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for joint network assisted interference cancellation and suppression (NAICS) and coordinated multi-point (COMP) operation are provided. One method includes configuring, by a network node, a victim user equipment and interfering user equipment in transmission mode 10 (TM10) with multiple channel state information (CSI) processes to perform dynamic point muting. The method may further include signaling network assisted interference cancellation and suppression (NAICS) information to the victim user equipment pretending the interfering user equipment mode is transmission mode 9 (TM9) or transmission mode 8 (TM8).
