1. A terminal, comprising:
a reception unit that receives, from a base station,
a first set including a plurality of resources that include at least a synchronization signal and optionally further include a broadcast channel and
a second set repeatedly arranged in a frequency direction and including a plurality of resources that include at least a synchronization signal and optionally further include a broadcast channel;
a control unit that assumes a Quasi co location (QCL) identical to a QCL assumed for the first set when receiving the second set; and
a communication unit that executes a random access procedure with the base station based on information included in the plurality of resources of the first set or the plurality of resources of the second set,
wherein a frequency position of the second set is changed for each period in a time domain, and
wherein the second set comprises at least one Synchronization Signal Block (SSB).
