Abstract
Example embodiments of the present disclosure relate to communication. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, a network device transmits configuration information for one or more frequency hopping modes to a terminal device. The terminal device determines which frequency hopping mode is used and also determines a plurality of frequency hopping positions based on the configuration information. In this way, it can have more frequency hopping positions which achieve more frequency diversity gain and benefit to coverage enhancement. Further, the frequency hopping frequency is configured more flexible.
