Publication number: 20240137929Abstract: 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.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 27, 2023Publication date: April 25, 2024Inventors: Lei DONG, Hongjia SU, Wenting GUO, Lei LU

Publication number: 20240129901Abstract: A communication method and apparatus are disclosed. A first terminal apparatus may receive first data from a second terminal apparatus, and determine a feedback time unit in a channel occupancy time, where the feedback time unit corresponds to the first data. The first terminal apparatus may transmit first feedback information on a first frequency domain resource in the feedback time unit, and transmit second feedback information on a second frequency domain resource. The first feedback information is an acknowledgment or a negative acknowledgment for the first data, the first frequency domain resource is determined based on a time-frequency resource carrying the first data, the first frequency domain resource and the second frequency domain resource belong to a first channel, and the first frequency domain resource and the second frequency domain resource do not overlap.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 18, 2023Publication date: April 18, 2024Inventors: Hongjia Su, Lei Dong, Wenting Guo, Lei Lu
