Abstract: A data retransmission method and apparatus, the method including receiving, by a base station, first acknowledgement sequence number (ACK-SN) information sent by a terminal, where the first ACK-SN information is disposed in a status report, and where the first ACK-SN information carries a sequence number of a first data packet, recording, by the base station, the first ACK-SN information and a quantity of times the first ACK-SN information is received, and retransmitting, by the base station, the first data packet to the terminal based on the first ACK-SN information in response to the quantity of times the first ACK-SN information is received accumulatively reaching a preset value, where the preset value is less than or equal to a maximum quantity of retransmissions.

Abstract: Embodiments of this application provide a data processing method and a related device. In the method, a radio link control RLC entity in a network device receives a first data packet corresponding to a first sequence number SN from a terminal device. The RLC entity determines, based on the first SN and a second SN, whether the first SN jumps abnormally, where the second SN is an SN of any data packet received before a current moment. The RLC layer entity may determine whether the SN jumps abnormally, to perform a subsequent operation such as handover, thereby reducing occurrence of a one-way audio event.
