  • Publication number: 20210235360
    Abstract: Embodiments of this application provide a transmission path switching method and apparatus. When a transmission path is switched, a currently used data transmission path is not directly switched from a first transmission path to a second transmission path after the second transmission path is configured, but after it is further determined that a first condition is met, the currently used data transmission path is switched from the first transmission path to the second transmission path, to avoid data interruption in a process of switching a data transmission path of an application from the first transmission path to the second transmission path. This improves use smoothness of the application.

  • Patent number: 11071092
    Abstract: In the embodiments of the present invention, a base station can determine a relay communication period of remote user equipment by using indication information carried in a resource request of relay user equipment or by using a resource request of the remote user equipment, and allocate a resource in the relay communication period to the relay user equipment, so that the relay user equipment returns a response message to the remote user equipment by using the resource. Therefore, for a request message sent by the remote user equipment, it can be ensured that the relay user equipment returns, in the relay communication period, a response message corresponding to the request message to the remote user equipment, to avoid a case in which the remote user equipment cannot detect the response message, and to reduce a failure probability of a service requested by the remote user equipment.

  • Publication number: 20210212023
    Abstract: First configuration information is configured for a second device by a first device. The first configuration information is used to indicate a first time-frequency resource allocated by the first device. The first time-frequency resource is different from a second time-frequency resource that is allocated by the first device to a third device in a same group. The first time-frequency resource comprises a third time-frequency resource and a fourth time-frequency resource. The third time-frequency resource is a time-frequency resource used when the first device receives a message sent by the second device. The fourth time-frequency resource is a time-frequency resource used when the first device sends a message to the second device. The third time-frequency resource is different from the fourth time-frequency resource. Control information that includes the first configuration information is sent by the first device.
