Abstract
A communications method is provided, to satisfy a requirement of indicating a random access resource dynamically and effectively reduce resource conflicts caused when PRACH resource configuration is performed. The method includes: sending, by a network device, a first message and a second message to user equipment, where the first message is used to indicate a set of candidate time domain resource units of a physical random access channel of the user equipment, the second message carries first indication information, and the first indication information is used to indicate a time domain resource unit format of a first candidate time domain resource unit in the plurality of candidate time domain resource units; and receiving, by the network device from the user equipment based on the time domain resource unit format, a random access preamble in the first candidate time domain resource unit.
