1. A method comprising:
receiving, from a network side device, a first message common to user equipments (UEs) in a cell in which a UE is located, wherein the first message comprises first common configuration information for a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH), wherein the first common configuration information is associated with a first subband and comprises frequency hopping information for the PUCCH, wherein the first message further comprises one or more pieces of control channel configuration information, wherein each piece of control channel configuration information indicates a parameter configuration to transmit one or more control channels, and wherein different pieces of control channel configuration information correspond to different control channels and are associated with different subbands;
receiving, from the network side device and after receiving the first message, a second message specific to the UE in the cell, wherein the second message comprises first dedicated configuration information for the PUCCH, and wherein the first dedicated configuration information is associated with a second subband and comprises a code rate that is for the PUCCH and that is dedicated to the UE; and
performing, according to the first common configuration information and the first dedicated configuration information, a control channel transmission of the PUCCH to the network side device via the second subband.
