17. A method for resource allocation at a network device, comprising:
allocating a first frequency band to at least one first terminal device utilizing a first radio access technology (RAT); and
allocating a second frequency band to at least one second terminal device utilizing a second RAT;
wherein the first frequency band is at least partly overlapped with the second frequency band, wherein the overlapped part of the first and second frequency bands is spatially multiplexed between the at least one first terminal device and the at least one second terminal device, wherein the first frequency band is allocated for at least one non-broadcasting channel of the at least one first terminal device, and wherein the second frequency band is allocated for at least one non- broadcasting channel of the at least one second terminal device.
 
19. A method for resource allocation at a network device, comprising:
allocating a first frequency band to at least one first terminal device utilizing a first radio access technology (RAT), the first RAT comprising long term evolution (LTE); and
allocating a second frequency band to at least one second terminal device utilizing a second RAT, the second RAT comprising new radio (NR); and
allocating a third frequency band for Sounding Reference Signal (SRS) of LTE and/or at least one broadcasting channel of a first type of the at least one first terminal device, wherein the third frequency band is located in another fixed position within the frequency spectrum to be allocated by the network device;
wherein the first frequency band is at least partly overlapped with the second frequency band, and—wherein the overlapped part of the first and second frequency bands is spatially multiplexed between the at least one first terminal device and the at least one second terminal device, and wherein the at least one broadcasting channel of the first type of the at least one first terminal device includes at least one of Cell Reference Signal (CRS), Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH), Physical Control Format Indicator Channel (PCIFICH), Synchronization Signal Block (SSB), Total Radiated Sensitivity (TRS), and Channel State Information-Reference Signal (CSI-RS).
