Abstract

A method, an apparatus and a system for cooperative resources scheduling and cooperative communication are provided. The method for cooperative resources includes: obtaining, by a network central controller, statistical information of all the users dominated by it in a first time period, dividing base stations to base station cooperative clusters according to the statistical information, and transmitting cooperative cluster dividing result to the base stations. The corresponding method and apparatus for cooperative communication are also provided. The solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure can increase the transmission rate and user experience for the users at the edge of the cooperative cluster, and improve the fairness of the system users, while reducing the signaling overhead of the system, separating the computational tasks and reducing the difficulty of implementing the whole system.
