Methods for determining frequency domain resources, communication equipment, and readable storage media

Abstract

Innovation refers to methods for determining the availability of frequency domain resources, communication devices, and readable storage media. These methods include: The network device is configured with at least two frequency domain resources for the terminal device, of which at least two frequency domain resources include at least one type 1 frequency domain resource and at least one type 2 frequency domain resource, and the type 2 frequency domain resource can be used by a reduced capability (REDCAP) terminal device to communicate with the network device. The network device sends, to the terminal device, Configuration information in which at least two frequency domain resources are configured. The end device identifies one of at least two frequency domain resources based on the configuration information and communicates with the network device using that frequency domain resource. The network device configures the frequency domain resources, and at least one of the frequency domain resources is available for use by the end device. Therefore, the problem of the terminal device being unable to communicate normally with the network device due to the bandwidth of the currently configured frequency domain resource exceeding the terminal device's maximum bandwidth can be avoided, so that the reliability of the communication system is improved.
