Abstract: Example grouping methods, apparatuses, and systems are provided. One example method includes receiving, by a central unit, a first interference intensity indication reported by at least one distributed unit. The central unit can then group the at least one distributed unit into at least one first distributed unit group based on the first interference intensity indication. The central unit can then send, to a controller, a distributed unit grouping indication and a second interference intensity indication that corresponds to the at least one first distributed unit group, where the distributed unit grouping indication is used to indicate the at least one first distributed unit group.
