  • Patent number: 10631344
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method and an apparatus for acquiring a resource. Herein, the method includes the following steps: acquiring a resource request index and a contention opportunity set (100); acquiring a number of maximum contention times (101); determining a contention opportunity that UE participates in contention according to the acquired resource request index, the contention opportunity set and the number of the maximum contention times; and acquiring a resource for sending data by using the contention opportunity (102). By means of the present disclosure, since UE can participate in contention for the contention opportunity set only after acquiring information about the number of the maximum contention times, the problem of collision, i.e., contention conflict caused by a reason that a plurality of UEs contend for the same contention opportunity can be easily reduced.
