1. A method for information transmission, comprising:
sending, by a network device in a first slot or a first mini-slot, a first synchronization signal (SS) block and a first physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) to a terminal device, the first slot or the first mini-slot comprising N symbols, the first SS block occupying M consecutive symbols in the first slot or the first mini-slot, the first SS block comprising an SS and a physical broadcast channel (PBCH), wherein M and N are positive integers, and M≤N,
wherein in the first slot or the first mini-slot, symbols occupied by the first PDCCH are at least partially overlapped with the M consecutive symbols occupied by the first SS block, and frequency domain resources occupied by the first PDCCH are non-overlapped with frequency domain resources occupied by the first SS block.
