Abstract

A method and corresponding equipment for transferring information of a neighboring cell in a wireless communications system are provided. The method includes obtaining position information of a user equipment (UE) when detecting that the UE is in a service connection state. It is determined whether the UE is in a coverage threshold range of a micro-cell adjacent to a current macro-cell according to the position information of the UE. Information of the micro-cell is transferred to the UE when the UE is in the coverage threshold range of the micro-cell adjacent to a current macro-cell.
