Simplified Explanation

The present invention introduces a method and apparatus for allocating bandwidth, as well as user equipment and a base station. The method involves the user equipment receiving virtual bandwidth configuration information, which indicates the configuration of a virtual bandwidth. The user equipment then performs signal reception and/or signal processing based on the virtual bandwidth indicated by the configuration information. Each virtual bandwidth represents a portion or the entirety of the maximum available bandwidth or transmission bandwidth for downlink communication. This invention aims to reduce overhead and complexity in signal reception and processing, while also allowing for flexible control of feedback related to these processes.


Original Abstract Submitted

Embodiments of the present invention provide a bandwidth allocation method and apparatus, user equipment, and a base station. The method includes: receiving, by user equipment, virtual bandwidth configuration information, where the virtual bandwidth configuration information is used for indicating a configuration of a virtual bandwidth; and performing, by the user equipment, signal reception and/or signal processing according to the virtual bandwidth indicated by the virtual bandwidth configuration information, where each virtual bandwidth is a part or all of a downlink maximum available bandwidth or a downlink transmission bandwidth, and the downlink maximum available bandwidth is a maximum bandwidth available for downlink transmission. In the embodiments of the present invention, reduction of overheads and reduction of complexity of signal reception and signal processing are implemented, and overheads and complexity of signal reception and processing feedback can be flexibly controlled.
