<p>Embodiments of the present invention provide a method and an apparatus for increasing user capacity of a physical sector, and a base station, where the method includes: determining a correspondence between a current user terminal in a physical sector and a belonging beam area or an intersection area, where more than one beam in different directions is provided in the physical sector, the intersection area is an overlapping coverage area of adjacent beams in a same physical sector, and the belonging beam area is an area that is in a coverage area of each beam and is not in an intersection area; sending, by a beam, communication data to a user terminal located in a belonging beam area corresponding to the beam; sending, jointly by all beams that cover an intersection area, communication data to a user terminal located in the intersection area; multiplexing a same block of time-frequency resource for user terminals located in different belonging beam areas; and performing switching between beams when the user terminal switches between the belonging beam area and the intersection area. In the embodiments of the present invention, a same block of time-frequency resource can be multiplexed for user terminals located in different belonging beam areas, thereby increasing user capacity.</p> |
