A method for mapping Access Points (APs) to cells includes: allocating multiple carriers to one AP if the AP serves different User Equipments (UEs) located in a same cell or different cells; and setting up a mapping relation between the AP, the multiple carriers, and the cells for the AP, so as to map the AP to the same cell or different cells through the multiple carriers. In the embodiments of the present invention, the APs in different cells serve the same UE based on the same carrier, which is equivalent to converting inter-cell coordination into intra-cell coordination, thus reducing signaling overheads and simplifying the Coordinated Multi-Point (CoMP) transmitting and CoMP receiving. |
