Abstract
A Base Station (BS) operation method for reducing load terminals based on load estimation of a neighbor cell in a wireless communication system includes receiving information for estimating a load of a neighbor BS, determining whether to determine the power control and handover terminal set using the number of terminals serviced by the neighbor BS, the number of overload terminals among the terminals serviced by the neighbor BS, and the backoff counter value, and, when it is determined to determine a power control and handover terminal set, deciding the power control and handover terminal set to minimize load terminals, based on the first power variation and the second power variation.
