Abstract  Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention relates to an uplink synchronization method and apparatus where the method includes: obtaining a timing advance of a second frequency point according to a timing advance of a first frequency point; and sending data at an uplink sending time corresponding to the timing advance of the second frequency point. According to embodiments of the present invention the TA of the second frequency point can be obtained according to the TA of the first frequency point and a RACH access process does not need to be performed at the second frequency point which effectively reduces the network resources occupied by the RACH process and shortens the produced delay thereby improving the performance of the entire system.
