9. A User Equipment (UE), comprising: a memory, a processor and a transmission control program stored in the memory and operable on the processor, wherein the transmission control program is executed by the processor to perform the transmission control method according to claim 1 .

10. A transmission control method, applied to a base station, comprising:

generating a Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) pattern, wherein the TDM pattern is configured to indicate an uplink resource and/or a downlink resource available for a User Equipment (UE);

sending the TDM pattern to the UE, to enable the UE to perform a transmission control according to the TDM pattern;

sending Downlink Control Information (DCI) of an uplink (UL) grant; and

cancelling receiving uplink (UL) information scheduled by the UL grant, when an uplink resource indicated by the DCI conflicts with the uplink resource indicated by the TDM pattern;

wherein the uplink resource indicated by the DCI conflicting with the uplink resource indicated by the TDM pattern comprises: the unlink resource indicated by the DCI being within an uplink resource of another base station which is indicated by the TDM pattern.

11. The method according to claim 10 , wherein the uplink resource comprises an uplink slot or an uplink Physical Resource Block (PRB), and the downlink resource comprises a downlink slot or a downlink PRB.

12. The method according to claim 10 , wherein the sending the TDM pattern to the UE comprises:

sending the TDM pattern to the UE through one or more of a Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling, a Media Access Control (MAC) Control Unit (CE) and a physical downlink control channel.
