Abstract

A method for determining a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback resource includes determining, by a transmit end, the HARQ feedback resource of a receive end based on processing capability information of the receive end of a priority of data transmitted between the transmit end and the receive end, where the HARQ feedback resource carries HARQ information corresponding to the data transmitted between the transmit end and the receive end, and sending, by transmit end to the receive end, indication information indicating the HARQ feedback resource.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method comprising:
selecting, from a resource pool corresponding to a processing capability level of a receive end, a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback resource of the receive end based on the processing capability level, a preconfigured correspondence between the processing capability level and the resource pool, and a first priority of first data transmitted between a transmit end and the receive end according to a quality of service (QoS) requirement of the first data, wherein the resource pool comprises one or more time-frequency resources, wherein the HARQ feedback resource carries HARQ information corresponding to the first data, and wherein the HARQ feedback resource comprises a time-frequency resource for the receive end to perform HARQ feedback; and
sending, to the receive end, indication information indicating the HARQ feedback resource.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein processing capability information of the receive end comprises the processing capability level and indicates a processing time of the receive end from a first moment of receiving second data from the transmit end to a second moment of sending, to the transmit end, the HARQ information.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein a time interval between the HARQ feedback resource and a resource location at which the receive end receives the second data is greater than or equal to the processing time.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein processing capability information of the receive end comprises the processing capability level and indicates the processing capability level of the receive end from a first moment of receiving second data from the transmit end to a second moment of sending, to the transmit end, the HARQ information.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein a first terminal device in the receive end comprises a first processing capability level, wherein a second terminal device in the receive end comprises a second processing capability level, and wherein a first time interval between a first HARQ feedback resource of the first terminal device and a first resource location at which the first terminal device receives second data from the transmit end is less than a second time interval between a second HARQ feedback resource of the second terminal device and a second resource location at which the second terminal device receives third data from the transmit end when a first processing capability of the first terminal device is higher than a second processing capability of the second terminal device.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
transmitting second data to a first terminal device in the receive end; and
transmitting third data to a second terminal device in the receive end,
wherein a first time interval between a first HARQ feedback resource of the first terminal device and a first resource location at which the first terminal device receives the second data is less than a second time interval between a second HARQ feedback resource of the second terminal device and a second resource location at which the second terminal device receives the third data when a second priority of the second data is higher than a third priority of the third data.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving, on the HARQ feedback resource and from the receive end, the HARQ information.

8. The method of claim 1 , comprising receiving, from the receive end, a Radio Resource Control (RRC) message carrying processing capability information of the receive end.

9. A communications apparatus, comprising:
a memory configured to store program instructions; and
a processor coupled to the memory, wherein the program instructions cause the processor to be configured to:
select, from a resource pool corresponding to a processing capability, a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback resource of the receive end based on the processing capability level, a preconfigured correspondence between the processing capability level and the resource pool, and a first priority of first data transmitted between a transmit end and the receive end according to a quality of service (QoS) requirement of the first data, wherein the resource pool comprises one or more time-frequency resources, wherein the HARQ feedback resource carries HARQ information corresponding to the first data, and wherein the HARQ feedback resource comprises a time-frequency resource for the receive end to perform HARQ feedback; and
send to the receive end, indication information indicating the HARQ feedback resource.

10. The communications apparatus of claim 9 , wherein processing capability information of the receive end comprises the processing capability level and indicates a processing time of the receive end from a first moment of receiving second data from the communications apparatus to a second moment of sending, to the communications apparatus, the HARQ information.

11. The communications apparatus of claim 10 , wherein a time interval between the HARQ feedback resource and a resource location at which the receive end receives the second data is greater than or equal to the processing time.

12. The communications apparatus of claim 9 , wherein processing capability information of the receive end comprises the processing capability level and indicates the processing capability level of the receive end from a first moment of receiving second data from the communications apparatus to a second moment of sending, to the communications apparatus, the HARQ information.

13. The communications apparatus of claim 12 , wherein a first terminal device in the receive end comprises a first processing capability level, wherein a second terminal device in the receive end comprises a second processing capability level, and wherein a first time interval between a first HARQ feedback resource of the first terminal device and a first resource location at which the first terminal device receives second data from the communications apparatus is less than a second time interval between a second HARQ feedback resource of the second terminal device and a second resource location at which the second terminal device receives third data from the communications apparatus when a first processing capability of the first terminal device is higher than a second processing capability of the second terminal device.

14. The communications apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the program instructions further cause the processor to be configured to:
transmit second data to a first terminal device in the receive end; and
transmit third data to a second terminal device in the receive end,
wherein a first time interval between a first HARQ feedback resource of the first terminal device and a first resource location at which the first terminal device receives the second data is less than a second time interval between a second HARQ feedback resource of the second terminal device and a second resource location at which the second terminal device receives the third data when a second priority of the second data is higher than a third priority of the third data.

15. The communications apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the program instructions further cause the processor to be configured to receive, on the HARQ feedback resource and from the receive end, the HARQ information.

16. The communications apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the program instructions further cause the processor to be configured to receive, from the receive end, a Radio Resource Control (RRC) message carrying processing capability information of the receive end.
