Abstract
A load balancing method, an access controller and a load balancing system are provided. The method includes receiving load status association information from a plurality of APs in a wireless local area network, respectively, the load status association information including load information and connectivity information, and the connectivity information being information for indicating one or more UEs that can be connected to an AP corresponding to the load status association information; determining, based on the load status association information, load statuses of the APs, and obtaining, using the load status association information, a load balancing connection scheme for balancing loads of the APs, when the load statuses satisfy a predetermined condition; and determining, based on the load balancing connection scheme, a correspondence relation between a specific UE and one of the plurality of APs to connect a UE and a corresponding AP.
