The present disclosure provides an assisting communication device and method, a wireless access node and a method for a wireless access node. The assisting communication device includes: an adjacent access nodes information acquiring unit, configured to detect, based on configuration information from a wireless access node assisted by the assisting communication device, at least one adjacent access node, to acquire working parameters of the adjacent access nodes, the configuration information including an indication about at least one of a detecting type, a detecting object and a detecting result report; and a notification unit, configured to report the acquired working parameters of the adjacent access nodes to the wireless access node assisted by the assisting communication device, to be served as a configuration reference of the wireless access node so as to avoid conflict with the adjacent access nodes.
