Abstract

A method for acquiring a time-frequency resource location of a CORESET of RMSI includes: receiving a synchronization signal sent by a base station, and determining a synchronization signal block corresponding to the synchronization signal; acquiring a physical broadcast channel PBCH of the synchronization signal block, where the PBCH carries time-domain information and frequency-domain information corresponding to the CORESET of the RMSI; and acquiring, according to the time-domain information and the frequency-domain information corresponding to the CORESET of the RMSI, the time-frequency resource location of the CORESET of a corresponding RMSI. As such, a UE may acquire the time-frequency resource location of the CORESET of the corresponding RMSI, which has a simple implementation manner.
