Apparatus and method for determining subband resource

A method for determining a subband resource, implemented by an apparatus which is associated with a base station, the subband resource is a resource in a subband, the subband is a frequency resource that is within a downlink bandwidth or an uplink bandwidth, and the subband has less bandwidth than either the downlink bandwidth or the uplink bandwidth, and the method comprises:

• acquiring subband resource information, wherein the subband resource information comprises information for determining the subband resource;
• determining the subband resource according to the subband resource information;
• and
• transmitting at least one of (a) data and (b) control information according to the subband resource;
• wherein the subband resource information comprises a subband determining manner and a subband index, wherein the subband determining manner specifies a formation manner of the subband in the bandwidth, and the subband index indicates a number of subbands comprised in the bandwidth.

An apparatus for determining a subband resource, wherein the apparatus is associated with a user equipment (UE), the subband resource is a resource in a subband, the subband is a frequency resource that is within a downlink bandwidth or an uplink bandwidth, and the subband has less bandwidth than either the downlink bandwidth or the uplink bandwidth, and the apparatus comprises:

• a memory, configured to store information that comprises a program instruction;
• a processor, coupled to the memory and a transceiver, configured to control execution of the program instruction, and configured to:
• acquire subband resource information, wherein the subband resource information comprises information for determining the subband resource;
• and determine the subband resource according to the subband resource information;
• and
• the transceiver, configured to transmit at least one of (a) data and (b) control information according to the subband resource;
• wherein the subband resource information comprises a subband determining manner and a subband index, wherein the subband determining manner specifies a formation manner of the subband in the bandwidth, and the subband index indicates a number of subbands comprised in the bandwidth.
