Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for managing radio resources in a multi-carrier and heterogeneous network-integrated radio access environment. A method of managing radio resources in a BS supporting multiple carriers includes sending an RRC connection reconfiguration message, including measurement control information, to UE, receiving a measurement report, including a measurement result for an HetNet RAT cell, from the UE, determining to configure HetNet RAT bearer connection with the UE based on the measurement report, sending an RRC connection reconfiguration message, requesting to configure the HetNet RAT bearer connection, to the UE, and sending some of or the entire traffic for the UE, to the UE through the HetNet RAT bearer. If overload or interference occurs in a serving cell, some of or the entire traffic is transmitted through a cell based on HetNet RAT, if necessary. Accordingly, load balancing or interference coordination can be achieved.
