Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil de communication, un système, et un support de stockage, qui se rapportent à des systèmes de communication sans fil. Le procédé comprend les étapes suivantes : un dispositif de réseau détermine des informations de configuration et envoie les informations de configuration. Les informations de configuration sont utilisées pour indiquer N ressources associées, les N ressources associées comprennent une première ressource et une seconde ressource, la première ressource correspond à une première ressource de canal d'accès aléatoire physique (PRACH) et la seconde ressource correspond à une seconde ressource de canal PRACH, N étant un nombre entier positif supérieur ou égal à 2. Au moyen de la configuration d'une pluralité de ressources associées, des signaux de liaison montante peuvent être envoyés sur une pluralité de ressources de canal PRACH correspondant à la pluralité de ressources associées de façon à améliorer la couverture de liaison montante pendant un processus d'accès aléatoire.
