Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure disclose a paging method, a terminal device and a network device, the method includes: determining, by a terminal device, at least one paging bandwidth for carrying a paging message of the terminal device, where each paging bandwidth in the at least one paging bandwidth is not greater than a bandwidth of a minimum bandwidth capacity of the terminal device; and receiving, by the terminal device, the paging message on the at least one paging bandwidth. The method, terminal device and network device of the embodiments of the present disclosure can avoid the problem that the terminal device being paged cannot perform reception due to that the paging bandwidth exceeds the capacity of the terminal device.

Claims (26)

1. A paging method, comprising:

transmitting, by a network device, configuration information to a terminal device, wherein the configuration information is used to configure a plurality of paging bandwidths for the terminal device; and

transmitting, by the network device, a paging message to the terminal device;

wherein the configuration information comprises configuration of a plurality of bandwidth parts (BWPs), each of the plurality of BWPs having a one to one corresponding relationship with a paging bandwidth of the plurality of paging bandwidths, wherein each BWP comprises one paging bandwidth, the paging bandwidth being part of the BWP, and the configuration information comprises frequency domain position information of each of the plurality of paging bandwidths.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the configuration information is carried in a system message.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of paging bandwidths is located in a different BWP.

4. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

transmitting, by the network device, indication information to the terminal device, wherein the indication information is used for the terminal device to determine a first paging bandwidth.

5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the first paging bandwidth is one of the plurality of paging bandwidths.

6. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the transmitting, by the network device, indication information to the terminal device comprises:

transmitting, by the network device, indication information to the terminal device through a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH).

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of paging bandwidths are located in a system bandwidth.

8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of paging bandwidths is no larger than a minimum bandwidth capability of the terminal device.

9. A network device, comprising: an input interface, an output interface, a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored on the memory and operable on the processor, wherein the processor, when running the computer program, is configured to:

transmit configuration information to a terminal device, wherein the configuration information is used to configure a plurality of paging bandwidths for the terminal device; and

transmit a paging message to the terminal device;

wherein the configuration information comprises configuration of a plurality of bandwidth parts (BWPs), each of the plurality of BWPs having a one to one corresponding relationship with a paging bandwidth of the plurality of paging bandwidths, wherein each BWP comprises one paging bandwidth, the paging bandwidth being part of the BWP, and the configuration information comprises frequency domain position information of each of the plurality of paging bandwidths.

10. The network device according to claim 9 , wherein the configuration information is carried in a system message.

11. The network device according to claim 9 , wherein each of the plurality of paging bandwidths is located in a different BWP.

12. The network device according to claim 9 , wherein the processor, when running the computer program, is further configured to:

transmit indication information to the terminal device, wherein the indication information is used for the terminal device to determine a first paging bandwidth.

13. The network device according to claim 12 , wherein the first paging bandwidth is one of the plurality of paging bandwidths.

14. The network device according to claim 12 , wherein the processor, when running the computer program, is further configured to:

transmit indication information to the terminal device through a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH).

15. The network device according to claim 9 , wherein the plurality of paging bandwidths are located in a system bandwidth.

16. The network device according to claim 9 , wherein each of the plurality of paging bandwidths is no larger than a minimum bandwidth capability of the terminal device.
