Embodiments of the present invention relate to a charging method and device. The method includes: obtaining, by a radio access device located in an access network, first information, where the first information includes or is used to indicate a type of service data borne on a radio interface of the radio access device and a type of the radio interface; and sending, by the radio access device, the first information to a charging network element located in a core network, so that the charging network element performs charging by using the first information. The method provided in the embodiments of the present invention can implement service data charging without requiring a wireless local area network access gateway, thereby simplifying a communication process between network elements and reducing management costs of a network.
Abstract:
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.
Abstract:
The present invention provides methods and devices for determining a transmission power and relates to the field of communication technologies. A method includes receiving, by a power determining device, capacity information of a first cell sent by a serving base station of the first cell and determining a transmission power used by a serving base station of the second cell on the specific resource of the second cell according to the capacity information of the first cell. The aforementioned method allows the capacity of the first cell to be guaranteed.
Abstract:
A disclosure for measuring an aggregated carrier cell measuring an aggregated carrier cell configured with multiple component carriers is provided. In the disclosure, a user equipment receives, from a base station, a measurement period parameter for measuring a component carrier. The user equipment calculate a measurement period for a non-active component according to the received measurement period parameter and a signal measurement estimation value of the non-active component carrier, and performs measurement on the non-active component carrier with the calculated measurement period for the non-active component.

Abstract:
A carrier selection method and a base station are provided and are applied to the field of communications technologies. The carrier selection method includes: obtaining load status information corresponding to a control channel of a first base station on each carrier, where the load status information is used for indicating a load amount of the control channel; selecting, according to the load status information, from multiple carriers corresponding to the first base station, a carrier corresponding to a control channel with a relatively small load amount as an operational carrier for a second base station or a primary cell carrier for a user equipment served by the second base station. Carrier selection is implemented.
Abstract:
A method for configuring a cell includes the following steps. A network node obtains information for configuring serviceless Multicast Broadcast Single Frequency Network (MBSFN) sub-frames of a first cell; and the network node configures serviceless MBSFN sub-frames of a neighboring cell of the first cell by alternating the serviceless MBSFN sub-frames of the neighboring cell with the serviceless MBSFN sub-frames of the first cell according to the information for configuring the serviceless MBSFN sub-frames of the first cell. In the method for configuring the first cell, the serviceless MBSFN sub-frames of the neighboring cell alternate with the serviceless MBSFN sub-frames of the first cell, thereby reducing interference between cells and improving stability of the system.
