Abstract
The present disclosure provides a method for resource reconfiguration and the corresponding device. A method provided in a first aspect of the present disclosure comprises: at a controller for managing a baseband unit (BU) pool, determining system status and resource usage conditions of the BU pool; based on the system status and the resource usage conditions, identifying a resource that needs to be reconfigured, the resource being selected from a virtual machine running on a server in the BU pool or from a processing module in an accelerator in the BU pool; determining an address of a target device using the resource, wherein the target device is selected from servers or accelerators in the BU pool; and instructing the target device to reconfigure the resource. The solution of the present disclosure effects reconfiguration of all resources in cloud RAN.
