Abstract: Embodiments of this application provide an uplink transmission control method and an apparatus. A micro base station sends an uplink resource configuration request to a macro base station, the macro base station sends, to the micro base station, an uplink resource configuration indication that is used to allocate an uplink resource to the micro base station, and then the micro base station instructs user equipment to transmit uplink information by using the uplink resource. It can be seen that, after the macro base station allocates the uplink resource to the micro base station, the micro base station may use the uplink resource to receive the uplink information transmitted by the user equipment.

Abstract: Example methods, apparatuses, and systems for transmitting data in a wireless local area network mesh network are described herein. One example method includes receiving, by a first mesh station, a first data frame sent by a second mesh station, where a transmitter address of the first data frame is a MAC address of the second mesh station, and wherein the first and second mesh stations belong to different mesh gates. The first mesh station determines that the first data frame is one of a broadcast data frame, a multicast data frame, or an unknown unicast data frame and, further, that the first mesh station and the second mesh station belong to different mesh gates. In response to these determinations, the first data frame is discarded. The examples methods can be applied to a wireless mesh network including multiple mesh gates.

Abstract: Access nodes in a network are configured to periodically measure cell loads and exchange cell load measurements with neighbors. At each access node, cell loads are compared with load thresholds, and with neighboring loads, to determine whether or not load balancing operations should be triggered. Load balancing operations include reducing or increasing an effective coverage area of one or both of the congested cell and the neighbor cell by adjusting a handover threshold parameter, such as a threshold signal level. Adjusting thresholds at a congested cell triggers more handovers from the congested cell to the non-congested cell. Similarly, adjusting thresholds at a non-congested cell prevents handovers from the non-congested cell to the congested cell.
