Communication system, base station, and communication method
TLDR
Disclosed is a communication system in which information about the number of active users in each cell can be shared between base stations as discussed by the authors, where a first base station transmits operation information on the first cell to the second base station through the inter-base-station interface.Abstract:
Disclosed is a communication system in which information about the number of active users in each cell can be shared between base stations A communication system according to the present exemplary embodiment includes a first base station controlling a first cell and a second base station connected to the first base station through an inter-base-station interface, wherein the first base station transmits operation information on the first cell to the second base station through the inter-base-station interface, wherein the operation information on the first cell includes information about a load on the first cell and information about the number of active users in the first cellread more

Mobility control method mitigating inter cell interference and base stations which adopt the method
TL;DR: In this paper, a serving cell makes handover judgment criteria easier based on pre-acquired cell size information on its own cell and cell size of neighbor cells in order to facilitate terminal handovers from a base station with a large cell size to a BS with a small cell size, and selects the terminal for handover by comparing the evaluation function value with the handover criteria value.
