Abstract
A apparatus and system for exchanging data of an edge area user on a C-RAN are provided. The apparatus includes: at least one collaborative station of at least one neighboring C-RAN is determined for the edge area user on the C-RAN; control data is exchanged with the neighboring C-RAN collaborative station; a data exchange path used for exchanging first data with the neighboring C-RAN collaborative station is established according to the control data; the neighboring C-RAN collaborative station exchanges second data with the edge area user according to the control data. Based on the foregoing innovative mechanism, the C-RAN master station performs coupled collaboration with the neighboring C-RAN collaborative station by establishing the data exchange path, so that the neighboring C-RAN collaborative station may also exchange data with the edge area user, thereby enabling the edge area user on the C-RAN to obtain a better gain and improving system performance.
