Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a communication method. The method includes: receiving, by a terminal device, first information sent by a network device, where the first information is used to indicate an association relationship of physical downlink control channels PDCCH sent by N transmission receiving points, and N is an integer greater than or equal to 2; receiving, by the terminal device, the PDCCHs according to the first information.
Claims20
A communication method, comprising:
- determining, by a network device, first information, wherein the first information is used to indicate an association relationship of physical downlink control channels (PDCCH) sent by N transmission receiving points, and N is an integer greater than or equal to 2, and the first information is used for a terminal device to receive the PDCCHs;
- sending, by the network device, the first information to the terminal device.
The method according to claim 9, wherein N is 2, the N transmission receiving points comprise a first transmission receiving point and a second transmission receiving point, the PDCCH candidates corresponding to the N transmission receiving points comprise a first PDCCH candidate and a second PDCCH candidate, the first transmission receiving point corresponds to the first PDCCH candidate, and the second transmission receiving point corresponds to the second PDCCH candidate;
- the third association relationship comprises an identifier of the first PDCCH candidate and an identifier of the second PDCCH candidate.
A network device, comprising:
- a transceiver, a processor and a memory;
- wherein the memory has stored therein computer-executable instructions;
- and
- the processor executes the computer-executable instructions stored in the memory, causing the processor to:
- determine first information, wherein the first information is used to indicate an association relationship of physical downlink control channels (PDCCH) sent by N transmission receiving points, and N is an integer greater than or equal to 2, and the first information is used for a terminal device to receive the PDCCHs;
- send the first information to the terminal device.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium in which computer-executable instructions are stored, wherein the computer-executable instructions, upon being executed by a processor, are used to:
- determine first information, wherein the first information is used to indicate an association relationship of physical downlink control channels (PDCCH) sent by N transmission receiving points, and N is an integer greater than or equal to 2, and the first information is used for a terminal device to receive the PDCCHs;
- send the first information to the terminal device.
