Abstract

The present disclosure provides a communication method based on unlicensed frequency bands, a related equipment and a system, in which, the method includes: receiving a channel negotiation request, which includes a channel list that records information of a target unlicensed channel, the target unlicensed channel being a channel that needs to be used by the base station and in an unlicensed frequency band; responding to the channel negotiation request, and sending the channel list to an access point (AP) within a preset range, to instruct the AP to work through a channel included in the channel list except the target unlicensed channel; notifying the base station to communicate based on the target unlicensed channel, when a response message returned by the AP for the channel list is received. By utilizing embodiments of the present disclosure, efficiency of acquiring available channels in an unlicensed frequency band can be improved effectively.
