At 601, sending positions or a sending window for each beam which may be used to send data to be transmitted is determined based on a set position parameter.
In some embodiments, the set position parameter may be a set of multiple sending positions. In some embodiments, the set position parameter may also be a sending window for sending a synchronous block signal.
At 602, a first sending position or all the sending positions, at which a channel is in an unoccupied state, among the sending positions which may be used for sending data to be transmitted for each beam are determined as target sending positions for each beam. Alternatively, a first sending position or all the sending positions, at which a channel is in an unoccupied state, in the sending window which may be used for sending data to be transmitted are determined as the target sending positions for each beam.
