Abstract

A method and apparatus for transmitting cell load information in a wireless communication system is provided. According to an embodiment of the present invention, a master eNodeB (eNB) distributes UMTS terrestrial radio access network (UTRAN) cell load response to slave eNBs. According to another embodiment of the present invention, the master eNB aggregates evolved UTRAN (E-UTRAN) cell load response of slave eNBs to a radio network controller (RNC).
