Area-crossing coverage detection method and apparatus

The embodiments of the invention provide an area-crossing coverage detection method and an apparatus which relate to the wireless communication field and are used to rapidly and accurately reflect a base station with area-crossing coverage and the influence of the base station with area-crossing coverage on a mobile device so as to improve the performance and the quality of a wireless network. The detection method comprises: receiving the mobile measurement report transmitted by the mobile device wherein the mobile measurement report contains the identifications of at least three base stations the mobile device accesses in sequence; according to the identification of the first base station group of the at least three first base stations, obtaining the coordinate of each base station in the first base station group wherein the first base station group comprises the first base station, the second base station and the third base station that the mobile device accesses in sequence; and according to the coordinate
