Abstract

A resource allocation method, a network device and a wireless system are disclosed. The method includes: sorting Resource Blocks (RBs) used by a terminal of a first system and a terminal of a second system according to a use situation of the RBs used by the terminal of the first system and the terminal of the second system; and allocating the sorted RBs. When some RBs are available to a Long Term Evolution (LTE) terminal, coexistence of an LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) terminal and the LTE terminal is enabled, and compatibility between the LTE-A terminal and the LTE terminal is ensured.
