Enhanced network capacity and reduced overhead will be some of the future communication networks requirements. In the absence of Channel State Information (CSI) at the transmitter, Blind Interference Alignment (Blind IA) has shown that optimal Degrees of Freedom (DoF) can be achieved, minimizing network's overhead. Limited spectrum is a basic issue that millimeter-Wave (mmWave) frequencies can resolve in 5G systems. Our contribution is an interference management scheme, based on Blind IA that can be employed in multi-cell, slow-fading, mmWave networks. Blind IA manages inter-and intra-cell interference by antenna selection and appropriate message scheduling. We show that our proposed scheme achieves considerably higher sum rate than TDMA, and overall outperforms TDMA in terms of Degrees of Freedom (DoF) in most cases. Also, Blind IA provides better Bit Error Rate (BER) performance and fairness, in terms of scheduling, to the network users.
