Abstract  Abstract

The present disclosure provides a communication method and a communication device. The method includes: configuring at least one serving cell for each terminal, each of the at least one serving cell working on an unlicensed carrier; selecting at least one of the at least one serving cell as a primary cell or a primary secondary cell of the terminal, the selected serving cell forming a primary cell group or a primary secondary cell group of the terminal; and controlling the primary cell group or the primary secondary cell group to send a MIB to the terminal. The technical solution improves a transmission probability of the MIB of the primary cell group or the primary secondary cell group on an unlicensed frequency band, ensuring that a user receives the MIB in time to perform a time synchronization, the communication is normal, and delay and efficiency requirements of communication are met.
