US 12,757,105 B2 · Communication method and communications apparatus

Abstract

Embodiments of this application provide a communication method and a communications apparatus. When an operating bandwidth of a terminal device is a narrow bandwidth, time-frequency synchronization is performed on a resource with a relatively small bandwidth, to implement network communication. This avoids a communication failure and improves communication efficiency. In the method, a network device sends first indication information to a terminal device, where the first indication information indicates a relative location between a first resource and a second resource. The first resource carries a synchronization signal block and the synchronization signal block includes a first system message. The second resource carries a second system message, where a bandwidth of the second resource is less than a bandwidth of the first resource.

Dependent claims

A device, comprising:

a processor;
and
a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program to be executed by the processor, which when executed causes the device to:
receive first indication information from a network device, wherein the first indication information indicates a relative location between a first resource and a second resource, the first resource is a resource carrying a synchronization signal block, the synchronization signal block comprises a first system message, the second resource is a resource carrying a second system message, and a bandwidth of the second resource is less than a bandwidth of the first resource;
and
receive a second system message from the network device on the second resource, wherein a location of the second resource is determined based on the first indication information.
