Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention disclose a downlink Inter-Cell Interference Coordination (ICIC) method and relate to the wireless communication field. The method includes: obtaining information about multiple carriers in a current cell; obtaining, according to the information about the multiple carriers, a downlink ICIC parameter corresponding to each carrier of the multiple carriers; and sending the downlink ICIC parameter corresponding to each carrier to a neighboring cell of the current cell so as to enable the neighboring cell to perform, according to the downlink ICIC parameter, downlink interference coordination with the first cell. The embodiments of the present invention are applicable to downlink ICIC in a multi-carrier system.
