Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method and an apparatus for controlling user equipment's residing in a cell. With the embodiments, a base station of a virtual cell transmits a signal including common channel information, a frequency of the signal of the virtual cell is the same as a frequency of a signal transmitted by a base station of a source cell, the common channel information includes a pilot, a location area code and an inter-frequency reselection threshold, or includes a pilot and a location area code, and the content of the common channel information guides user equipment to reside in a target cell through reselection or through location update. Moreover, according to the embodiments, the co-channel interference caused by the signal onto the source cell is small, and the interference onto normal services of the source cell is reduced. Massive configuration in the source cell is also avoided. |
