The present disclosure relates to a method and a device for sending and receiving information. The method includes: determining a frame structure of a serving cell, where a radio frame corresponding to the frame structure includes at least one first special subframe, remaining subframes are downlink subframes, and the first special subframe includes symbols used for uplink transmission and downlink transmission, and a GP; and sending and receiving information in the serving cell based on the frame structure. In the technical solution, because the radio frame structure includes the first special subframe, when spectrum resources are maximally applied to downlink data service transmission, not only performance of massive MIMO is improved, but also the serving cell is enabled to work independently.
