  • Publication number: 20230085378
    Abstract: Embodiments of this application provide a communication method and apparatus. The method includes: A first terminal performs integrity protection verification on a received RRC message; and when the integrity protection verification fails, an RRC layer of the first terminal sends a first indication and an identifier of a second terminal to an application layer of the first terminal, where the first indication and the identifier of the second terminal are used by the application layer to disconnect a unicast connection between the first terminal and the second terminal. Based on this solution, when the integrity protection verification performed by the first terminal on the received message fails, the RRC layer of the first terminal may report the first indication and the identifier of the second terminal to the application layer, to trigger the application layer to disconnect the unicast connection between the first terminal and the second terminal.

  • Publication number: 20230034266
    Abstract: Embodiments of this application provide a data transmission method and an apparatus. When a time-frequency resource used by a terminal device for data transmission is unavailable, the terminal device postpones, based on indication information of a network device and/or according to a postponement rule, the data transmission to a time-frequency resource closest to the time-frequency resource. Therefore, a data transmission latency is reduced.

  • Publication number: 20220361129
    Abstract: This application provides a time synchronization method, an access network device, a communication apparatus, a computer storage medium, and a communication system. The method includes: A first access network device obtains first indication information, where the first indication information is used to indicate that a first terminal has a requirement for receiving or sending an uplink time synchronization message, and/or the indication information is used to indicate a precision requirement for time synchronization between the first terminal and a wireless network. The first access network device performs time synchronization on the first terminal based on the first indication information. This can avoid a case in which a requirement on a synchronization error of a time sensitive network TSN in an uplink time synchronization scenario cannot be met due to an excessively large air interface synchronization error, so that synchronization between TSN devices is improved, and TSN performance is improved.
