Communication method and communications device

An apparatus, comprising:

• a storage medium including executable instructions;
• and
• a processor;
• wherein the executable instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the apparatus to:
• receive configuration information from a network device, wherein the configuration information comprises a plurality of configuration parameters of a plurality of synchronization signal blocks, the plurality of synchronization signal blocks comprising different synchronization signal block bursts located at different frequency domain positions, each configuration parameter of the plurality of configuration parameters comprises respective transmission pattern information, each respective transmission pattern information indicates actually transmitted synchronization signal blocks in a synchronization signal block burst, and wherein each respective transmission pattern information is a bitmap;
• and
• determining the actually transmitted synchronization signal blocks based on the configuration information;
• and
• wherein, for each respective transmission pattern information, the bitmap of the respective transmission pattern information includes a plurality of bits, each bit of the plurality of bits indicates whether there is a synchronization signal block at a position corresponding to the bit, and each configuration parameter of the plurality of configuration parameters further comprises a period for a synchronization signal block of the plurality of synchronization signal blocks that corresponds to the respective configuration parameter.
