Patent ID: 11375545

Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a method and an apparatus for information transmission. The method includes: transmitting information or a channel over one or more of available narrow bands. The available narrow bands include available uplink narrow bands and/or available downlink narrow bands and the available narrow bands are determined based on information including at least one of: a system bandwidth, a cell identity, a position of an anchor carrier, information indicated by a PSS, information indicated by an SSS, information indicated by a MIB and information indicated by a SIB. The information or channel transmitted over the one or more narrow bands includes at least one of: a downlink control channel, a PDSCH, an RAR, a paging message, a SIB, a MIB, a PRACH, a PUSCH, and a PUCCH. The above solution solves the problem regarding how to obtain multiple narrow bands/carriers in NB-IoT and provides a scheme for determining available narrow bands.
