A method for managing random access in a cell of a multiple remote radio units, multi-RRU, cell network, said cell including a centralized processing unit and multiple distributed processing units, the method comprising: obtaining , by a first distributed processing unit, at least one resource identifier, wherein each resource identifier is a resource identifier pre-allocated by a centralized processing unit; obtaining , by the first distributed processing unit, random access channel RACH information sent by a user equipment; obtaining , by the first distributed processing unit, first random access information based on the RACH information; receiving , by the first distributed processing unit, at least one second random access information sent by a corresponding second distributed processing unit, wherein each second random access information is random access information obtained by the corresponding second distributed processing unit based on the RACH information sent by the user equipment; generating , by the first distributed processing unit, a first random access response RAR based on the first random access information and the at least one second random access information, wherein the RAR comprises a resource identifier, wherein the resource identifier is the resource identifier pre-allocated by the centralized processing unit; and sending , by the first distributed processing unit, the RAR in a preset sending slot; wherein the first distributed processing unit and each of the at least one second distributed processing units belong to a same logical cell managed by a single centralized processing unit; and wherein random access sequence identifiers in the first and each second random access information are same. obtaining , by a first distributed processing unit, at least one resource identifier, wherein each resource identifier is a resource identifier pre-allocated by a centralized processing unit; obtaining , by the first distributed processing unit, random access channel RACH information sent by a user equipment; obtaining , by the first distributed processing unit, first random access information based on the RACH information; receiving , by the first distributed processing unit, at least one second random access information sent by a corresponding second distributed processing unit, wherein each second random access information is random access information obtained by the corresponding second distributed processing unit based on the RACH information sent by the user equipment; generating , by the first distributed processing unit, a first random access response RAR based on the first random access information and the at least one second random access information, wherein the RAR comprises a resource identifier, wherein the resource identifier is the resource identifier pre-allocated by the centralized processing unit; and sending , by the first distributed processing unit, the RAR in a preset sending slot; wherein the first distributed processing unit and each of the at least one second distributed processing units belong to a same logical cell managed by a single centralized processing unit; and wherein random access sequence identifiers in the first and each second random access information are same. <EOS>
