A method for transmitting primary synchronization signals and secondary synchronization signals in new carriers is provided, which includes: with respect to a time domain, a base station side sending Primary Synchronization Signals (PSS) and Secondary Synchronization Signals (SSS) in Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbols except OFDM symbols occupied by reference signals in subframes #1 and #6, or subframes #0 and #5, or subframes #1, #6, #0 and #5; and with respect to a frequency domain, the base station side sending the PSS or SSS in resources of intermediate 6 Physical Resource Block (PRB) pairs of system bandwidth; the reference signals include Demodulation Reference Signals (DMRS).
