The object of the invention, which relates to a method and an arrangement for reducing the mutual interference of network subscribers in radio networks, is to provide a solution by means of which data collisions are reduced and thus the data throughput rate of a radio cell is increased. According to the invention, this object is achieved in terms of the method in that the cell size of a radio cell is adjusted by reducing the receiver sensitivity of one or more devices belonging to the radio cell if the device receives interference which disrupts its communication from another device belonging to a different radio cell.
