Abstract
An apparatus and a method of processing collision between synchronization signal/physical broadcast channel block (SSB) transmission and periodic transmission, applied in a shared spectrum are provided. The method includes obtaining, by a terminal device, a first candidate SSB position within a discovery burst transmission (DRS) window and obtaining, by the terminal device, a first resource for the periodic channel or signal transmission, wherein when the first resource is overlapped with the first candidate SSB position, determining, by the terminal device, whether the first resource is available for the periodic channel or signal transmission. This can solve issues in the prior art, provide a technical solution of handling a possible collision between an SSB and the periodic channel or signal, provide a simple implementation, provide a good communication performance, and/or provide high reliability.
