Abstract
An electronic device of a network side includes a processing circuit, which is configured to divide a service range of the electronic device into a plurality of timing advance group (TAG) areas according to position information, and to allocate one or more user equipments in each TAG area to the same TAG; and same is also configured to send timing advance (TA) information to the user equipments, wherein the TA information comprises TA values corresponding to the TAGs allocated for the user equipments, such that the user equipments use the TA values corresponding to the TAGs allocated for the user equipments as TA values between the user equipments and the electronic device. By means of the electronic device, a signaling overhead brought about by a TA update can be reduced, and the probability of random access preamble collisions can be reduced, thereby improving the probability of random access success.
