    Abstract: A random access method and an apparatus. In one example: A terminal device receives a first wake-up signal, and then determines N random access channel occasions based on a correspondence between the first wake-up signal and the N random access channel occasions. The terminal device determines a first random access channel occasion in the N random access channel occasions, and sends a random access preamble on the first random access channel occasion. A network device uses, as a reception beam, a beam used to send the first wake-up signal, to receive the random access preamble sent by the terminal device.

    Abstract: This application discloses a signal sending method, a signal receiving method, and a communication apparatus. The method includes: A network device determines a first SSB and a second SSB, sends the first SSB in a first BWP, and sends the second SSB in a second BWP. Transmit power of the first SSB is different from transmit power of the second SSB. The first BWP may be considered as a BWP of a first-type terminal device, and the second BWP may be considered as a BWP of a second-type terminal device. The network device may send the first SSB in the first BWP, and send the second SSB in the second BWP. The second-type terminal device obtains an SSB from the network device without switching from the second BWP to the first BWP, to reduce a quantity of BWP switching times, so as to reduce power consumption.

    Abstract: An apparatus includes one or more processors and a memory having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the apparatus to receive a first wake-up signal. The first wake-up signal is one of K wake-up signals, K is an integer greater than or equal to 1, and the K wake-up signals are quasi co-located with K synchronization signal blocks (SSBs), K channel state information-reference signals (CSI-RSs), or K demodulation reference signals (DMRSs). The apparatus is also caused to determine M paging occasions. There is a correspondence between the K wake-up signals and the M paging occasions, and M is an integer greater than or equal to 1. The apparatus is further caused to receive, on the M paging occasions, downlink control information (DCI) used for paging.
