Abstract

A synchronization method includes: determining a data signal, where a target sequence in the data signal is mapped to at least one symbol that includes the first symbol within a time unit, data in the data signal is mapped to at least one another symbol in the time unit other than the at least one symbol, the first symbol includes a cyclic prefix, and the target sequence is used by a second device to synchronize the data signal; and sending the data signal to the second device in the time unit. In the present disclosure, a sequence used to synchronize a data signal for each transmission is mapped at an equal spacing to at least one symbol that includes the first symbol within a time unit for the current transmission.
