There are provided a method and device for determining by a user equipment a downlink resource set, and a method and device for transmitting, by a base station, resource position information, where the user equipment obtains a third frequency domain position of a downlink control channel resource set corresponding to the user equipment based upon preset information of the first frequency domain position of a predefined first downlink control channel resource set, and/or based upon received first information, transmitted by the base station, including indication information of the second frequency domain position of the first downlink control channel resource set; obtains a third time domain position for determining the downlink control channel resource set corresponding to the user equipment, based upon preset information of the first time domain position of the predefined first downlink control channel resource set, and/or based upon the received first information, transmitted by the base station, including indication information of the second time domain position of the first downlink control channel resource set; and determines the downlink control channel resource set corresponding to the user equipment as a third downlink control channel resource set based upon the third frequency domain position and the third time domain position. With the technical solutions above, the technical problems above in the prior art can be addressed in effect.
In order to make the technical solutions according to the embodiments of the invention more apparent, the technical solutions above will be described below in details with reference to the drawings and in connection with specific implementations thereof. Based upon the embodiments of the invention, all the other embodiments which can occur to those ordinarily skilled in the art without any inventive effort shall fall into the claimed scope of the invention.
