Abstract: This application provides a communication method and apparatus. In the communication method, a first RLC entity is introduced to transmit a network-coded redundant packet, and a second RLC entity is introduced to transmit a network-coded original packet, so that requirement-based transmission of the network-coded redundant packet can be supported. The communication method includes: A terminal device receives scheduling information from an access network device, obtains a network-coded redundant packet through a first RLC entity, generates a first TB based on the network-coded redundant packet, and sends the first TB to the access network device, where the first TB includes the network-coded redundant packet. In this way, the access network device schedules the network-coded redundant packet by using the scheduling information only when the network-coded redundant packet needs to be scheduled, thereby avoiding a waste and reducing unnecessary redundant transmission.
