A power controlling method and corresponding base station for controlling the transmission power of each user terminal are disclosed, in which, each user terminal is paired into virtual MIMO transmission. In the solution, first, determining the transmission power of each user terminal that makes the sum of the transmission power of each user terminal minimum under the case that the specific index for each user terminal meets a required threshold value; then, feed backing the determined transmission power of each user terminal to each user terminal. Compared with the prior art, the solution can achieve a preferable power efficiency.
