Abstract

The present disclosure provides a data sending method. A first terminal device, determines at least two carriers to transmit at least two pieces of data corresponding to a same transport block, and in a one-to-one correspondence with the at least two pieces of data. The at least two pieces of data can be sent by the first terminal to a second terminal device or a network device by using the at least two carriers. When the first terminal device sends data, the first terminal device may send the at least two pieces of data to the second terminal device or the network device on the at least two carriers to improve reliability of data transmission. The at least two pieces of data may be sent simultaneously, to avoid an increased latency by transmissions of the at least two pieces of data in different time units.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A data sending method, comprising:
determining, by a first terminal device, at least two carriers, wherein the at least two carriers facilitates transmitting at least two pieces of data corresponding to a same transport block, and the at least two carriers are in a one-to-one correspondence with the at least two pieces of data;
wherein the determining the at least two carriers comprises:
receiving, by the first terminal device, first information from a network device, wherein the first information indicates the at least two carriers, and the first information indicates that the at least two pieces of data corresponding to the same transport block are transmitted on the at least two carriers;
determining, by the first terminal device, the at least two carriers based on the first information; and

sending, by the first terminal device, the at least two pieces of data to a second terminal device or the network device by using the at least two carriers.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first information comprises at least two pieces of first identification information, the at least two pieces of first identification information indicating the at least two carriers.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first information comprises at least two pieces of indication information, any one of the at least two pieces of indication information comprises first identification information and second identification information, the first identification information indicating one of the at least two carriers, the second identification information in the at least two pieces of indication information indicating one of the at least two carriers, and the second identification information indicating that the at least two pieces of data corresponding to the same transport block are transmitted on the at least two carriers.

4. The method according to claim 3 , wherein before receiving, by the first terminal device, the first information from the network device, the method further comprises:
receiving, by the first terminal device, first configuration information and second configuration information from the network device, wherein the first configuration information facilitates configuring identification information of the at least two carriers as the first identification information, and the second configuration information facilitates configuring time-frequency resource pools corresponding to the at least two carriers.

5. The method according to claim 3 , wherein before receiving, by the first terminal device, the first information from the network device, the method further comprises:
receiving, by the first terminal device, second configuration information and third configuration information from the network device, wherein the second configuration information facilitates configuring time-frequency resource pools corresponding to the at least two carriers, and the third configuration information facilitates configuring an association relationship, the association relationship indicating that the at least two pieces of data corresponding to the same transport block are transmitted on the at least two carriers.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises:
sending, by the first terminal device, second information to the second terminal device, wherein the second information indicates that the at least two pieces of data corresponding to the same transport block are transmitted on the at least two carriers.

7. The method according to claim 6 , wherein sending, by the first terminal device, the second information to the second terminal device comprises:
sending, by the first terminal device, the second information to the second terminal device by using a first carrier, wherein the first carrier is one of the at least two carriers, and the second information comprises at least first identification information, the first identification information is indicating a second carrier, the second carrier being at least one carrier in the at least two carriers other than the first carrier.

8. A data receiving method, comprising:
receiving, by a second terminal device, first configuration information and second configuration information from a network device, wherein the first configuration information facilitates configuring identification information of at least two carriers as first identification information, and the second configuration information facilitates configuring time-frequency resource pools corresponding to the at least two carries;
receiving, by the second terminal device, information from a first terminal device by using a first carrier, wherein the information comprises at least two pieces of the first identification information, and the at least two pieces of the first identification information indicate the at least two carriers, wherein the second information indicates a second carrier, the first carrier is one of the at least two carriers, the second carrier is at least one carrier in the at least two carriers other than the first carrier, and the information indicates that at least two pieces of data corresponding to a same transport block are transmitted on the at least two carriers; and
receiving, by the second terminal device, the at least two pieces of data from the first terminal device by using the at least two carriers.

9. The method according to claim 8 , wherein before receiving, by the second terminal device, the information from the first terminal device, the method further comprises:
receiving, by the second terminal device, the second configuration information and third configuration information from the network device, wherein the second configuration information facilitates configuring time-frequency resource pools corresponding to the at least two carriers, the third configuration information facilitates configuring an association relationship, and the association relationship is used to indicate that the at least two pieces of data corresponding to the same transport block are transmitted on the at least two carriers.

10. A data sending method, comprising:
determining, by a first terminal device, at least two carriers, wherein the at least two carriers facilitates transmitting at least two pieces of data corresponding to a same transport block, and the at least two carriers are in a one-to-one correspondence with the at least two pieces of data;
sending, by the first terminal device, the at least two pieces of data to a second terminal device or a network device by using the at least two carriers; and
sending, by the first terminal device, first information to the second terminal device, wherein the first information indicates that the at least two pieces of data corresponding to the same transport block are transmitted on the at least two carriers.

11. The method according to claim 10 , wherein determining, by the first terminal device, the at least two carriers comprises:
receiving, by the first terminal device, second information from the network device, wherein the second information indicates the at least two carriers, and the second information indicates that the at least two pieces of data corresponding to the same transport block are transmitted on the at least two carriers; and
determining, by the first terminal device, the at least two carriers based on the second information.

12. The method according to claim 11 , wherein the second information comprises at least two pieces of first identification information, the at least two pieces of first identification information indicating the at least two carriers.

13. The method according to claim 11 , wherei
