  • Publication number: 20240137929
    Abstract: This application provides a sidelink feedback information transmission method and a communication apparatus. The method includes: A first terminal sends first indication information to a second terminal, where the first indication information indicates that first channel occupancy time includes a first physical sidelink feedback channel PSFCH resource; and the first terminal receives, on the first PSFCH resource, feedback information from the second terminal. In this application, the second terminal sends the feedback information by using a resource contended by the first terminal. Compared with a solution in which the second terminal contends for a resource to send the feedback information, this solution in this application can reduce a possibility of a contention failure of the second terminal, and improve accuracy of data transmission.

  • Patent number: 11711249
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to the field of wireless communication technologies and provide a method for performing channel sounding, a network-side device, and a terminal. A first terminal sends a resource scheduling request to a network-side device when the first terminal starts a communication connection with a second terminal. The resource scheduling request carrying information about the second terminal requests the network-side device to allocate a transmission resource for channel sounding between the first terminal and the second terminal. The first terminal receives a sounding reference signal sent by the second terminal, and obtains information of a channel for communication between the first terminal and the second terminal. The method enables quick and effective channel sounding between terminals, thereby increasing communication efficiency between the terminals.
