On a length of one downlink signal symbol, in addition to the above description in which the same format of preamble signal symbol is used to transmit the preamble signal, different formats of the preamble signal symbol can also be used to transmit the preamble signal.
As an example, on a length of one downlink signal symbol, one downlink signal symbol includes a first preamble signal symbol and a second preamble signal symbol, where the first preamble signal symbol includes a CP and three information segments, and the second preamble signal symbol includes a CP and an information segment. At this time, the first time-point may be a starting point of the CP of the first preamble signal symbol, a starting point of an information segment of the first preamble signal symbol, or a starting point of the CP of the second preamble signal symbol.
