A base station clustering method, the method including a clustering server clustering base stations in a base station set managed by the clustering server, to obtain at least one cluster, determining a cluster with a quantity of base stations in the cluster being 1, determining a neighboring base station of the base station in the cluster, and adding, when the neighboring base station is a cluster-head base station, the base station as a cluster-member base station to a cluster to which the neighboring base station belongs, so that the separately clustered base station can be added to another cluster, and a cluster-head base station in the another cluster can control a working status of the base station.
