步骤202、所述第一网络设备依据探测到所述上行节能参考信号，开启所述第一小区的通信服务。
上述第一小区可以理解为节能小区。
在一些实施方式中，上述第一小区处于节能状态可以是，第一小区能够探测上行节约参考信号，但未开启上述通信服务的状态。例如：不下发公共信号的状态，或不接收与上行节能参考信号为不同的上行信号的状态，或关闭波束、关闭部分频段或在部分时间内关闭收发单元的状态等。

上述探测上行节能参考信号可以是，接收终端在上述第一小区发送的上行节能参考信号。

另外，本公开实施例中，由于依据探测到所述上行节能参考信号，开启所述第一小区的通信服务，这样还可以实现基于探测到的上行节能参考信号及时开启通信服务，以避免影响终端的数据吞吐量。
作为一种可选的实施方式，所述第一网络设备依据探测到所述上行节能参考信号，开启所述第一小区的通信服务，包括：
