Three patterns (Pattern) shown in FIG. 9 are used as an example. Pattern 1: An SSB and a control channel control resource set (for example, an RMSI CORESET) are located at different moments, and a transmission bandwidth of the SSB and a transmission bandwidth including the control channel control resource set (for example, the RMSI CORESET) overlap. Pattern 2: An SSB and a control channel control resource set (for example, an RMSI CORESET) are located at different moments, and a transmission bandwidth of the SSB and a transmission bandwidth including the control channel control resource set (for example, the RMSI CORESET) do not overlap. Pattern 3: An SSB and a control channel control resource set (for example, an RMSI CORESET) are located at a same moment, and a transmission bandwidth of the SSB and a transmission bandwidth including the control channel control resource set (for example, the RMSI CORESET) do not overlap.
In current NR, for a communication frequency band below 6 GHz, subcarrier spacings corresponding to an SSB and a control channel control resource set are 15 kHz or 30 kHz. For a communication frequency band above 6 GHz, a subcarrier spacing corresponding to an SSB is 120 kHz or 240 kHz, and a subcarrier spacing corresponding to a control channel control resource set may be 60 kHz or 120 kHz.
A subcarrier spacing (subcarrier spacing, SCS) combination that is of an SSB and a control channel control resource set and that is supported by the NR includes: {SSB SCS, CORESET SCS}={15, 15}, {15, 30}, {30, 15}, {30, 30}, {120, 60}, {120, 120}, {240, 60}, {240, 120}} kHz.
