Abstract

The present application provides a method and device in a node for wireless communications. A first node receives a first signaling and a second signaling, the first signaling indicates that Q SSBs are transmitted, and the Q SSBs respectively correspond to Q SSB indexes, the Q SSB indexes are respectively used to determine Q time-domain resources, Q being a positive integer greater than 1; determines a first time-domain resource based on at least a first integer, a candidate of the first time-domain resource constitutes a first time-domain resource pool; monitors a downlink control signaling in the first time-domain resource. The present application has good compatibility and improves the flexibility of resource allocation.
