Claim:
1. A communications device, comprising: a processor, configured to monitor whether a terminal on a macro network has a service requirement on a micro network controlled by the macro network, wherein the micro network is in the coverage area of the macro network, and the micro network is in a channel tailor mode whereby all common physical channels on the micro network or some common physical channels on the micro network except a pilot channel on the micro network are in a disabled state so that the micro network is disabled from supporting initial access of the terminal and enabled to accept access of the terminal by handover from the macro network which controls the micro network; and a transmitter, configured to: when the terminal has a service requirement on the micro network, send a first network handover instruction that comprises configuration information of the micro network controlled by the macro network to the terminal, wherein the first network handover instruction is used to instruct the terminal to hand over from the macro network to the micro network, wherein: the processor is further configured to monitor whether a data service volume of the terminal reaches a service volume threshold, and confirm the service requirement on the micro network when the data service volume reaches the service volume threshold; and the transmitter is further configured to: when the data service volume of the terminal reaches the service volume threshold, send the first network handover instruction that comprises the configuration information of the micro network to the terminal.
