Abstract

Disclosed are a cell reselection method, comprising: when a source cell determines that a UE meets an initial reselection condition of reselecting a target cell, the source cell performing a local search to find whether a reselection threshold parameter of reselecting the source cell from the target cell exists, if not, reselecting the target cell for the UE, and if yes, further determining whether a corresponding parameter of the UE in the source cell is smaller than or equal to the reselection threshold parameter, if not, not reselecting the target cell for the UE, and if yes, reselecting the target cell for the UE. Further disclosed are a cell reselection apparatus and a base station. The technical solution of the present invention avoids asymmetry of reselection policy between a TD cell and a GSM cell, avoids pingpong reselection between the TD cell and the GSM cell, shortens the duration that the paging of a VE is off during reselection, reduces the network load, and making the VE energy conservative.
