This application provides a communication method, including: A terminal device receives configuration information from a network device. The configuration information is used to configure at least two frequency bands for the terminal device, and the at least two frequency bands include a first frequency band and a second frequency band. The terminal device receives first scheduling information from the network device. The first scheduling information indicates a target resource block (RB) for data transmission. The terminal device performs data transmission with the network device on a same symbol by using a first RB on the first frequency band and a second RB on the second frequency band. There is a first common resource block (CRB) deviation between the first RB and the second RB, and the target RB includes the first RB or the second RB.
