1. A method performed by a first base station, the method comprising:
sending, to a second base station, a resource status request message indicating whether results of load measurements are to be reported at a periodicity; and
receiving in accordance with the resource status request message, from the second base station, a resource status update message for reporting the results of the load measurements, wherein
in a case where the resource status request message includes information of the periodicity, the resource status request message indicates the results of the load measurements are to be reported at the periodicity,
in a case where the resource status request message does not include the information of the periodicity, the resource status request message indicates the results of the load measurements are to be reported once, and
the periodicity indicates averaging window length for a measurement object.
