Therefore, the network device can send the start number and the corresponding end number of the absolute wireless channel number ARFCN. The spectrum between is determined to be the spectrum supported by the terminal device.

Optionally, a new capability IE can be defined: supported frequency range list (supported frequency range list-r17), which is used to carry the start number and corresponding end number of the ARFCN corresponding to the spectrum supported by the terminal device.

Among them, the supportedfrequencyrangelist-r17 may include information such as the start number of the ARFCN (startnumberofARFCN) and the end number of the ARFCN (endnumberofARFCN) corresponding to each spectrum supported by the terminal device. When the frequency band is further expanded, if the terminal device supports the expanded spectrum, you can directly add the ARFCN start number and ARFCN end number corresponding to the expanded spectrum in supportedfrequencyrangelist-r17, which improves the spectrum indication method supported by the terminal device. versatility and compatibility.
