Data Transmission Method, Base Station, and User Equipment

An apparatus, comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program to be executed by the one or more processors, the program including instructions for:
• determining a data block to be carried on an ith physical broadcast channel of N physical broadcast channels, wherein the ith physical broadcast channel corresponds to an ith beam of N beams, and wherein N is a positive integer greater than 1, and i is a positive integer greater than zero (0) and less than or equal to N;
• scrambling the data block to be carried on the ith physical broadcast channel, to obtain a scrambled code block to be carried on the ith physical broadcast channel;
• and
• sending, on a first time resource unit and using the ith beam, the scrambled code block to be carried on the ith physical broadcast channel, wherein the first time resource unit is one of a plurality of time resource units corresponding to the N beams;
• and, wherein the ith physical broadcast channel satisfies the following:
• wherein the ith physical broadcast channel carries indication information of the ith beam corresponding to the ith physical broadcast channel;
• a pilot signal carried on the ith physical broadcast channel corresponds to indication information of the ith beam corresponding to the ith physical broadcast channel, wherein pilot signals carried on the N physical broadcast channels are different from each other;
• or
• a scrambling code for scrambling the data block carried on the ith physical broadcast channel corresponds to indication information of the ith beam corresponding to the ith physical broadcast channel.

A system, comprising an apparatus, wherein the apparatus is configured to:

• determine a data block carried on an ith physical broadcast channel of N physical broadcast channels, wherein the ith physical broadcast channel corresponds to an ith beam of N beams, and wherein N is a positive integer greater than 1, and i is a positive integer greater than zero (0) and less than or equal to N;
• scramble the data block carried on the ith physical broadcast channel, to obtain a scrambled code block carried on the ith physical broadcast channel;
• and
• send, on a first time resource unit and using the ith beam, the scrambled code block carried on the ith physical broadcast channel, wherein the first time resource unit is one of a plurality of time resource units corresponding to the N beams;
• and
• wherein the ith physical broadcast channel satisfies the following:
• the ith physical broadcast channel carries indication information of the ith beam corresponding to the ith physical broadcast channel;
• a pilot signal carried on the ith physical broadcast channel corresponds to indication information of the ith beam corresponding to the ith physical broadcast channel, wherein pilot signals carried on the N physical broadcast channels are different from each other;
• and
• a scrambling code for scrambling the data block carried on the ith physical broadcast channel corresponds to indication information of the ith beam corresponding to the ith physical broadcast channel.
