Time-frequency resource allocation method and apparatus for access signal and communication system

Abstract

Embodiments of this disclosure provide a time-frequency resource allocation method and apparatus for an access signal and a communication system. The method includes: a base station indicates, via control signaling and/or a broadcast message, a position of a time-frequency resource for transmitting an access signal, the access signal is transmitted via common numerologies or via different numerologies or via one numerology. With the method and apparatus or the system of the embodiments of this disclosure, cell access may be achieved when a user supports different numerologies.
