  • Publication number: 20200112877
    Abstract: Example resource allocation methods and apparatus are described to resolve a problem of resource congestion and collision occurring in a communications system when virtual resource blocks (VRBs) scheduled for different terminal devices are mapped to physical resource blocks (PRBs). In one example method, system bandwidth of the communications system is divided into a plurality of fixed interleaving regions. Therefore, a network device can indicate a type of a virtual resource unit in a form of a frequency domain range occupied by one interleaving region. Using the foregoing solution can enable the network device to set the type of the virtual resource unit more conveniently.
