determining a direct link between a current User Equipment (UE) and a destination device indicated by the destination device identifier as the at least one reported direct link, based on the current UE sending V2X data on a single frequency.

4. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the information of the direct link comprises a transmission frequency and a destination device identifier, and said determining the at least one reported direct link based on the information of the at least one reported direct link comprises:

determining a direct link on the transmission frequency between the current UE and a destination device indicated by the destination device identifier as the at least one reported direct link, based on the current UE sending V2X data on a plurality of frequencies.

5. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the information of the direct link comprises an index of the direct link, and said determining the at least one reported direct link based on the information of the at least one reported direct link comprises:

determining the at least one reported direct link based on a second mapping relationship and the index of the at least one direct link, wherein the second mapping relationship comprises correspondence between the plurality of direct links and indexes of the plurality of direct links.

6. The method according to claim 2 , wherein said reporting the channel quality of the at least one reported direct link using at least the uplink resource comprises:

reporting the channel quality of the at least one reported direct link using the uplink resource, based on the channel quality of the at least one reported direct link reaching the channel quality threshold.

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein said reporting channel quality of the at least one reported direct link or information of the at least one reported direct link comprises:

based on the at least one reported direct link comprising a plurality of reported direct links, sorting the channel quality of the plurality of reported direct links according to an order of frequencies of the plurality of reported direct links and/or an order of destination device identifiers corresponding to the plurality of reported direct links, or according to an order of indexes of the plurality of reported direct links; and

reporting the sorted channel quality of the plurality of reported direct links.

8. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the report indication information comprises a plurality of destination device identifiers, or comprises a plurality of transmission frequencies and a plurality of destination device identifiers, or comprises indexes of a plurality of direct links.

9. The method according to claim 1 , wherein said reporting channel quality of the at least one reported direct link or information of the at least one reported direct link comprises:

reporting an index or a number of the at least one reported direct link;

based on a current UE sending V2X data on a single frequency, reporting the number of the at least one reported direct link or a destination device identifier of the at least one reported direct link; or

based on the current UE sending V2X data on a plurality of frequencies, reporting the number of the at least one reported direct link or a destination device identifier of the at least one reported direct link on each of the plurality of frequencies.

10. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the report indication information further comprises configuration information of channel quality of the direct link, and the configuration information is selected from a group consisting of a channel quality indicator, a precoding matrix indicator and a rank indicator of the direct link.

11. A channel quality reporting method for direct links, comprising:

configuring report indication information, wherein the report indication information indicates at least one direct link that needs to be reported or a report condition;

transmitting the report indication information to a User Equipment (UE) to make the UE determine at least one reported direct link at least based on the report indication information, and report channel quality of the at least one reported direct link or information of the at least one reported direct link; and

wherein the report condition comprises a channel quality threshold, and said determining at least one reported direct link at least based on the report indication information comprises:

determining the at least one reported direct link based on the channel quality of the at least one reported direct link reaching the channel quality threshold.

12. A non-transitory storage medium storing one or more programs, the one or more programs comprising computer instructions, which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:

receive report indication information, wherein the report indication information indicates at least one direct link that needs to be reported or a report condition;

determine at least one reported direct link at least based on the report indication information;

report channel quality of the at least one reported direct link or information of the at least one reported direct link; and

wherein the report condition comprises a channel quality threshold, and said determining at least one reported direct link at least based on the report indication information comprises:
