METHOD FOR LOAD MANAGEMENT OF BASE STATION AND APPARATUSES THEREOF

Abstract:

Provided are apparatuses and methods of managing a load of a base station node in fifth generation (5G) networks. The method of a master base station for managing a load of a secondary base station may include establishing dual connectivity with the secondary base station, receiving a secondary base station status indication message from the secondary base station through an X2 interface, and determining whether to apply an action for reducing a load of the secondary base station based on a value of a secondary base station load information parameter included in the secondary base station status indication message.
