Abstract: This application discloses a data sending method, a data receiving method, and an apparatus. The data sending method includes: if first type data is punctured, preserving, by a network device, a punctured first data subset in the first type data and puncture location information of the first data subset in the first type data, and retransmitting the first data subset within a second scheduling period to a user equipment.

In addition, the network device only needs to retransmit the punctured first data subset within the second scheduling period but does not need to retransmit the entire first type data, so that an amount of data to be retransmitted is reduced and fewer transmission resources are consumed.

Abstract: Systems and methods for permitted network risks in diverse route determinations introduce the concept of permitted network risks which are risks that may be present in a disjoint path calculation. This removes the binary logic in conventional shared risk path determination, i.e., either exclude or include. With the present disclosure, a network risk may be excluded (must never use) or shared (may use if needed). In an embodiment, if a route for a backup tunnel or path excluding all network risks is not possible, then a route for the backup tunnel or path may be found excluding some network risks of the primary tunnel or path except specified network risks that are determined/specified as permitted network risks. Such permitted network risks can be explicitly specified by a network operator or implicitly determined based on a category (e.g., node and/or equipment may be shared network risks whereas links may not).
