Embodiments of the present disclosure provide an information transmission method, user equipment (UE), and a base station. The method includes: determining, by the UE, at least one candidate sequence of a synchronization signal of an access cell and multiple candidate access resources of the access cell; detecting, by the UE, the synchronization signal according to the at least one candidate sequence; and determining, by the UE, a resource location of an actual access resource corresponding to a detected actual sequence in the access cell according to a location relationship between each candidate access resource in the multiple candidate access resources and the resource on which the access cell is located and a correspondence between the any candidate sequence in the at least one candidate sequence and the multiple candidate access resources.
