  • Publication number: 20230171144
    Abstract: Example wireless communication methods and apparatus are described. In one example method, a relay device receives a first signal sent by a first device, where the first signal carries a plurality of bits. The relay device decodes the first signal to determine first information corresponding to each of a plurality of first bits. The first information corresponding to each first bit is determined based on a probability that the first bit is 1 and a probability that the first bit is 0. The relay device sends the first information in a second signal to a second device, so that the second device can use the first information to decode the first signal.
