A random access method and a device are provided, to enable a device in the Internet of Things to implement random access. The method includes: selecting, by a terminal from at least two frequencies, frequencies used to send a physical random access channel PRACH signal, as frequencies occupied by target PRACH resources, where the at least two frequencies each have a preset bandwidth, and there is no intersection between frequency bands of the at least two frequencies; generating, by the terminal, a target PRACH signal based on the frequencies occupied by the target PRACH resources, a root allocated by a base station, and a cyclic shift corresponding to the root allocated by the base station; and sending, by the terminal, the target PRACH signal to the base station on the target PRACH resources.

Random access method and device

This application provides a communications method and device. The communications method includes: determining a first frequency band and a second frequency band in an operating frequency band; and transmitting a first-type frame in the first frequency band, and transmitting a second-type frame in the second frequency band, where the first-type frame is used to carry a first-type service, the second-type frame is used to carry a second-type service, and the second-type frame and the first-type frame have different frame structures. Therefore, in embodiments of the present application, different frame structures are used in different frequency bands in the operating frequency band, and different services are carried by using the different frame structures, thereby meeting transmission requirements of different types of services.

Communications method and device

In a time deviation determining method, a terminal determines an uplink timing advance between the terminal and a base station; determines a one-way transmission delay based on the uplink timing advance; and determines a clock time deviation between the terminal and the base station based on the one-way transmission delay, a time difference between a base-station clock time of a system frame in two system frames and a terminal clock time of a following system frame in the two system frames, and a time difference between the two system frames. In the solution provided in this application, the clock deviation between the terminal and the base station can be determined more flexibly and accurately. In addition, signaling interaction between the terminal and the base station is reduced, and network resources are saved.
