Abstract
This application provides a communication method, a network device, and a relay device for relay devices to discover one another. A first network device determines a first resource, where the first resource includes a resource used by a second network device to send a first signal to a second relay device, or the first resource includes a resource configured by the second network device for a first signal with zero power. The first network device sends first configuration information to a first relay device, where the first configuration information is used by the first relay device to determine a second resource for sending a second signal, and the second resource is a part or all of the first resource.
Claims18
A communication method, comprising:
- determining, by a first network device, a first resource, wherein the first resource comprises a resource used by a second network device to send a first signal to a second relay device, or the first resource comprises a resource configured by the second network device for a first signal with zero power;
- and
- sending, by the first network device, first configuration information to a first relay device, wherein the first relay device determines a second resource for sending a second signal based on the first configuration information, and the second resource is a part or all of the first resource.
A network device, comprising:
- a processing module, configured to determine a first resource, wherein the first resource comprises a resource used by a second network device to send a first signal to a second relay device, or the first resource comprises a resource configured by the second network device for a first signal with zero power;
- and
- a sending module, configured to send first configuration information to the first relay device, wherein the first configuration information is used by the first relay device to determine a second resource for sending a second signal, and the second resource is a part or all of the first resource.
A relay device, comprising:
- a receiving module, configured to receive first configuration information sent by a first network device;
- a processing module, configured to determine, a second resource based on the first configuration information, wherein the second resource is a part or all of a first resource, and the first resource comprises a resource used by a second network device to send a first signal to a second relay device, or the first resource comprises a resource configured by the second network device for a first signal with zero power;
- and
- a sending module, configured to send a second signal on the second resource.
