Abstract

A first node receives a target signaling, the target signaling indicating at least one symbol of first type, the at least one symbol of the first type including a downlink symbol for uplink transmission in a first sub-band that is indicated by TDD UL-DL configuration; and transmits a first signal; the first signal comprises a first sub-signal and a second sub-signal, the first sub-signal and the second sub-signal being two hops for the first signal, respectively; the first signal occupies a target symbol set in time domain; a starting RB occupied by the second sub-signal is a target RB, where a frequency-domain location of the target RB depends on a first integer, a distribution of the symbols of the first type in the target symbol set is used to determine the first integer. This application improves the uplink frequency hopping transmission procedure, and improves the anti-interference ability of signals.
