Abstract
A communication method and apparatus, and a storage medium are provided. An access network device configures and/or schedules a plurality of resources of a first signal, so that a terminal can send the first signal at positions of the plurality of resources in a first time period, and does not configure and/or not schedule the terminal to send a second signal in the first time period. A configuration behavior and/or a scheduling behavior of the access network device are/is clearly defined, so that the terminal does not need to switch between an initial bandwidth part (BWP) or an active BWP and a frequency-hopping sounding reference signal (SRS), thereby reducing power consumption of a network and the terminal.
Claims18
A communication method, comprising:
- receiving, by a terminal, resource configuration and/or scheduling information of a first signal from an access network device, wherein the resource configuration and/or scheduling information are/is used to configure and/or schedule a plurality of resources of the first signal, time domain positions of the plurality of resources are not overlapping, and frequency domain positions of the plurality of resources are partially overlapping or entirely non-overlapping;
- and
- sending, by the terminal, the first signal at positions of the plurality of resources in a first time period, wherein
- the terminal does not expect to be configured or scheduled to send a second signal in the first time period.
A communication method, wherein the method comprises:
- sending, by an access network device, resource configuration and/or scheduling information of a first signal to a terminal, wherein the resource configuration and/or scheduling information are/is used to configure and/or schedule a plurality of resources of the first signal, time domain positions of the plurality of resources are not overlapping, and frequency domain positions of the plurality of resources are partially overlapping or entirely non-overlapping;
- and
- receiving, by the access network device, the first signal from the terminal at positions of the plurality of resources in a first time period, wherein
- the terminal is not configured and/or not scheduled to send a second signal in the first time period.
A communication apparatus, comprising a processor and an interface circuit, wherein the interface circuit is configured to:
- receive a signal from another communication apparatus and transmit the signal to the processor, or send a signal from the processor to another communication apparatus, and the processor is configured to implement the method comprising:
- receiving, by a terminal, resource configuration and/or scheduling information of a first signal from an access network device, wherein the resource configuration and/or scheduling information are/is used to configure and/or schedule a plurality of resources of the first signal, time domain positions of the plurality of resources are not overlapping, and frequency domain positions of the plurality of resources are partially overlapping or entirely non-overlapping;
- and
- sending, by the terminal, the first signal at positions of the plurality of resources in a first time period, wherein
- the terminal does not expect to be configured or scheduled to send a second signal in the first time period.
