Abstract: This application provides a data transmission method and an apparatus that are used for extended reality (XR) technologies. In a data transmission method disclosed herein, different parts of to-be-transmitted data are segmented into different code blocks (CBs), to mitigate impact of a transmission failure of one part of the to-be-transmitted data on another part of the to-be-transmitted data, thereby improving overall user experience in data reception. In this way, transmissions of low priority data and high priority data may be separated to avoid performance degradation caused by the low priority data on the high-priority data.
