Abstract

A method and system are disclosed for power saving of NodeB. The method includes the following steps: when a first condition is met, the NodeB enters a power saving mode and at least one multi-input multi-output (MIMO) cell of the NodeB is reconfigured as a non-MIMO cell; when a second condition is met, the NodeB enters a normal mode, and at least one non-MIMO cell of the NodeB is reconfigured as a MIMO cell. The method and system can dynamically configure the cell mode, which both ensures the experience of MIMO terminal and saves the power consumption of the NodeB in the case that the user data amount is not large.
