Community 2 can be selected as operator A, or select community 3, still simultaneously select community 2 and 3, depend on the community selection strategy that operator A is arranged, these strategies are various, after will illustrate.But it should be noted that in the embodiment of the present invention at this, determine and initiate the right that the operator of load balancing determines strategy, but specifically do not limit operator and adopt which kind of strategy.Due in the embodiment of the present invention, the selection of Target cell is determined, because this eliminating the difference of operator A and B on equilibrium direction by the operator initiating load balancing.
After operator B receives this load balancing requests, whether can agree to provide load balancing according to certain strategy decision, and notification payload balancing requests side, composition graphs 2 illustrates as follows.
When operator B to predict according to certain prediction algorithm in Target cell follow-up by needs for a large amount of increment users provides communication service (as there is school in the coverage of community 3, and will classes are over after 10 minutes, show according to historical data, the load of community 3 will sharply increase after school) time, then this load balancing requests may be refused by operator.Certainly, when operator B thinks that the resource of self residual is enough to tackle the communication increased rapidly at hand, this load balancing requests will be agreed to.
Certainly, above is only operator B illustrating the strategy whether load balancing requests accepts, and the specific embodiment of the invention does not limit the strategy whether load balancing requests accepts.
When the consensus decision of both sides assists to carry out load balancing jointly, then need to carry out certain operation separately, to guarantee carrying out smoothly of load balancing.
For load balancing, for Fig. 2, need to perform following operation:
1, for cell-of-origin (community 1), operator B needs certain customers to move to other community from community 1, is assumed to community 2 at this;
2 and for Target cell (community 2), operator B needs to ensure that user can not be switched to community 1 more as far as possible, otherwise load balancing can be caused to lose efficacy.
Therefore, when the consensus decision of both sides assists to carry out load balancing jointly, at source base station end, need receiving instruction that described target BS returns with being intended to after described Target cell utilizes the resource of the second operator to assist described first operator described cell-of-origin to be carried out to the first request response of load balancing, the first cell merge parameter corresponding to described Target cell belonged under described cell-of-origin in the mobile communication terminal of described second operator is updated to the second cell merge parameter.
