Abstract

The present disclosure discloses a method and device for wireless communications, comprising receiving a first signaling, the first signaling being used to indicate a first ID set of a first service, the first service being a non-unicast service, and the first ID set comprising a plurality of IDs; determining a target ID; and applying the target ID to receive the target data set; wherein the first service comprises K data sets, the target data set is one of the K data sets, K being a positive integer greater than 1; the first ID set comprises K IDs, and the target ID is one of the K IDs in the first ID set. The application receives a target data set by receiving a first signaling and determining a target ID, which helps to improve efficiency and save power.
