a transmitter is configured to send, on the resource, downlink control information (DCI) carried by the physical downlink control channel, wherein the DCI is used for scheduling the physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH), wherein the transmitter is further configured to send a random access response (RAR) carried by the PDSCH.

10. The base station according to claim 9 , wherein, when the level information determined by the processor has different values, determined resources of the physical downlink control channel do not overlap or are different.

11. The base station according to claim 10 , wherein when the resource comprises the frequency resource, the processor is specifically configured to determine at least one of a physical downlink control channel aggregation level, a physical downlink control channel search space, or a physical downlink control channel candidate according to the level information.

12. The base station according to claim 10 , wherein transmitter further comprises a correspondence sending module, wherein the correspondence sending module is configured to send information about a correspondence between the resource of the physical downlink control channel and the level information of the random access preamble sent in the enhanced manner, so as to determine the resource of the physical downlink control channel according to the information about the correspondence.

13. A terminal comprising:

a processor is configured to:
