The application discloses a method implemented by a first base station, including: obtaining, first receive power information, where the first receive power information is receive power information of receiving a signal transmitted by user equipment served by a second base station; determining, according to the first receive power information, a relationship between the user equipment and a coverage area of the first base station; and notifying the second base station of the relationship. Thus, when user equipment approaches a network covered by a first base station, a second base station may know a relationship between the user equipment and the coverage area of the first base station, so as to perform a network handover for the user equipment or establish a wireless connection between the user equipment and the first base station. The embodiments of the present invention further provide a corresponding base station.
