1. An electronic device for wireless communication, comprising:
circuitry including a processor and a memory, and configured to
receive a measurement report of one or more neighbor cells from a terminal device served by the electronic device,
wherein the measurement report includes measurement results of the one or more neighbor cells;
determine whether carrier aggregation manners of one or more candidate base stations corresponding to the one or more neighbor cells are consecutive or non-consecutive,
wherein the carrier aggregation manners of the one or more candidate base stations are determined to be consecutive when the one or more candidate base stations operate in a same frequency band, and
wherein the carrier aggregation manners of the one or more candidate base stations are determined to be non-consecutive when the one or more candidate base stations do not operate in the same frequency band; and
determine one or more cells to be accessed from the one or more neighbor cells based on the measurement report and whether the carrier aggregation manners of the one or more candidate base stations corresponding to the one or more neighbor cells are determined to be consecutive or non-consecutive.
