  Precise measurements of the spectra of secondary and primary cosmic rays are
crucial for understanding the origin and propagation of those energetic
particles. The High Energy cosmic-Radiation Detection (HERD) facility onboard
China`s Space Station, which is expected to operate in 2027, will push the
direct measurements of cosmic ray fluxes precisely up to PeV energies. In this
work, we investigate the potential of HERD on studying the propagation of
cosmic rays using the measurements of boron, carbon, and oxygen spectra. We
find that, compared with the current results, the new HERD measurements can
improve the accuracy of the propagation parameters by 8\% to 40\%. The
constraints on the injection spectra at high energies will also be improved.
