    摘要: This application discloses a wireless communication method, apparatus, and system, applied to a wireless communication network. The wireless communication network includes at least two access nodes. The method includes: A first access node obtains a first communication resource corresponding to a first terminal device, where the first communication resource is used to provide a network function service for the first terminal device; the first access node generates a first record based on the first communication resource; and the first access node sends the first record to another access node in the wireless communication network. According to this method, the first record including the first communication resource is sent to another access node in an access network instead of a core network element of a terrestrial station. A distance between the first access node and the another access node in the radio access network is shorter than a distance to the terrestrial core network element. Therefore, transmission overheads can be effectively reduced, and a transmission latency can be effectively shortened, so that wireless communication efficiency is improved.

    摘要: Embodiments of this application provide a gateway station switching method and apparatus. When quality of a link from a terminal device to a source gateway station through a satellite is poor, the source gateway station sends third indication information to a target gateway station, so that the target gateway station feeds back second channel quality to the source gateway station, that is, quality of a link from the terminal device to the target gateway station through the satellite. The source gateway station determines, based on the second channel quality and first channel quality that represents the quality of the link from the terminal device to the source gateway station through the satellite, whether to switch the terminal device to the target gateway station. In this process, the source gateway station determines whether to switch the gateway station by comparing the quality of the link from the source gateway station to the terminal device through the satellite and the quality of the link from the target gateway station to the terminal device through the satellite, thereby improving communication quality.

    摘要: This application discloses a beam establishment method. A terminal apparatus obtains synchronization signal and PBCH blocks SSBs in a plurality of beams; then determines a target beam in the plurality of beams based on an association relationship between an SSB index and a first random access preamble, where the first random access preamble is determined based on a cyclic shift and/or an order of symbols; and finally sends the random access preamble by using the target beam, to initiate a random access request. A communication device receives the first random access preamble in the random access request sent by the terminal apparatus, and then determines, based on the association relationship, the target beam accessed by the terminal apparatus. According to embodiments of this application, the first random access preamble is determined based on the cyclic shift and/or the order of symbols. This can increase a quantity of SSB indexes associated with one random access occasion RO, and reduce association duration between the RO and the SSB, so that a time interval at which the terminal apparatus initiates random access is reduced, and user experience is effectively improved.

    摘要: This application discloses a random access preamble configuration method applicable to a satellite network and a communication apparatus. In the method, a random access preamble location offset and duration of a PRACH occasion can be flexibly configured based on features of a satellite system. The method includes: A receiving apparatus receives first indication information, where the first indication information includes indication information used to identify the random access preamble location offset at the physical random access channel PRACH occasion. The receiving apparatus transmits a random preamble based on the first indication information, where the random preamble includes a sequence part and a guard time. Because a communication distance is relatively long and a transmission delay difference between users is relatively large in a satellite communication system, time domain resources occupied by the PRACH occasion can be minimized by using this method.
