Abstract

A method and an apparatus for sharing a cell-ID between sites and determining a cell-ID of a site in cooperative communication includes: obtaining a synchronization sequence set, where the synchronization sequence set is used to determine a cell-ID (Cell-ID); and allocating synchronization sequences in the same synchronization sequence set to multiple sites, where the synchronization sequences in the same synchronization sequence set are used to determine antenna unit IDs (AU-ID) of respective sites. Through the embodiments, a system overhead may be decreased.
