performing at least one of the following operations in the case that the downlink transmission identification signal is detected:

performing PDCCH blind decoding in the detection period starting from a starting position indicated by the first indication information;

performing PDCCH blind decoding in the detection period in the case that the second indication information indicates that there is downlink data in the detection period;

skipping performing PDCCH blind decoding in the detection period in the case that the second indication information indicates that there is no downlink data in the detection period; and

performing PDCCH blind decoding starting from a starting position of the detection period in the case that neither the first indication information nor the second indication information is detected.

5. The information transmission method according to claim 4 , wherein the second indication information comprises an indication bitmap used for indicating whether there is downlink scheduling data on each time-domain transmission unit in the detection period;

wherein the step of performing PDCCH blind decoding in the detection period comprises:

performing, on a time-domain transmission unit on which there is downlink data indicated by the indication bitmap, PDCCH blind decoding on a time-domain transmission unit on which there is downlink data in the detection period.

6. The information transmission method according to claim 1 , wherein after the step of detecting the downlink transmission identification signal on a first time-domain transmission unit, the method further comprises:

performing PDCCH blind decoding on a time-domain transmission unit subsequent to the first time-domain transmission unit in the case that the downlink transmission identification signal is detected.

7. The information transmission method according to claim 6 , wherein after the step of performing PDCCH blind decoding, the method further comprises:

subsequent to an ending position of COT of a network device, stopping PDCCH blind decoding, and detecting a downlink transmission identification signal.
