Abstract

Claims (55)

1. A data transmission method, applied in a terminal device comprising a Medium Access Control (MAC) layer and a physical layer, the method comprising:

delivering, by the physical layer, indication information to the MAC layer, the indication information notifying the MAC layer that one piece of data is not transmitted by the physical layer, the one piece of data being determined by the physical layer as de-prioritized data and being determined by the MAC layer as prioritized data, wherein said delivering, by the physical layer, the indication information to the MAC layer comprises delivering, by the physical layer in response to the one piece of data not being transmitted by the physical layer, the indication information to the MAC layer; and

adjusting, by the MAC layer based on the indication information, a priority of the one piece of data at the MAC layer from prioritized to de-prioritized; and

re-transmitting the one piece of data, by the physical layer, to a network device after the priority of the one piece of data at the MAC layer being adjusted from prioritized to de-prioritized.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the one piece of data comprises a MAC Protocol Data Unit (PDU); and

wherein said re-transmitting the one piece of data comprises:

receiving, by the MAC layer, an Uplink (UL) grant, and re-transmitting the MAC PDU based on the UL grant.

3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the MAC PDU corresponds to a first configured grant; and

wherein said receiving, by the MAC layer, the UL grant, and re-transmitting the MAC PDU based on the UL grant comprises:

receiving, by the MAC layer, a second configured grant; and

re-transmitting, by the MAC layer based on the second configured grant, the MAC PDU.

4. A data transmission method, applied in a network device, the method comprising:

receiving one piece of data transmitted by a terminal device,

wherein the terminal device comprises a Medium Access Control (MAC) layer and a physical layer, the one piece of data is determined by the physical layer as de-prioritized data and determined by the MAC layer as prioritized data, wherein the MAC layer adjusts, based on indication information, a priority of the one piece of data at the MAC layer from prioritized to de-prioritized, and the one piece of data is re-transmitted by the physical layer to the network device after the priority of the one piece of data at the MAC layer being adjusted from prioritized to de-prioritized, the indication information being information delivered from the physical layer to the MAC layer in response to the one piece of data not being transmitted by the physical layer and indicating the MAC layer to adjust the priority of the one piece of data at the MAC layer.

5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the one piece of data comprises a MAC Protocol Data Unit (PDU); and

wherein said receiving the one piece of data transmitted by the terminal device comprises:

transmitting an Uplink (UL) grant to the terminal device; and

receiving the MAC PDU transmitted, based on the UL grant, by the MAC layer.

6. The method according to claim 5 , wherein the MAC PDU corresponds to a first configured grant;

wherein said transmitting the UL grant to the terminal device comprises:

transmitting a second configured grant to the terminal device; and

wherein said receiving the MAC PDU transmitted, based on the UL grant, by the MAC layer comprises:

receiving the MAC PDU re-transmitted, based on the second configured grant, by the MAC layer.

7. A terminal device, comprising:

a processor;

a transceiver connected to the processor; and

a memory configured to store instructions executable by the processor;

wherein the terminal device comprises a Medium Access Control (MAC) layer and a physical layer, and

wherein the processor is configured to load and execute the executable instructions to cause the terminal device to:

deliver, by the physical layer, indication information to the MAC layer, the indication information notifying the MAC layer that one piece of data is not transmitted by the physical layer, the one piece of data being determined by the physical layer as de-prioritized data and being determined by the MAC layer as prioritized data, wherein said delivering, by the physical layer, the indication information to the MAC layer comprises delivering, by the physical layer in response to the one piece of data not being transmitted by the physical layer, the indication information to the MAC layer; and

adjust, by the MAC layer based on the indication information, a priority of the one piece of data at the MAC layer from prioritized to de-prioritized; and

re-transmit the one piece of data, by the physical layer, to a network device after the priority of the one piece of data at the MAC layer being adjusted from prioritized to de-prioritized.

8. The terminal device according to claim 7 , wherein the one piece of data comprises a MAC Protocol Data Unit (PDU); and

wherein said re-transmitting the one piece of data comprises:

receiving, by the MAC layer, an Uplink (UL) grant, and re-transmitting the MAC PDU based on the UL grant.

9. The terminal device according to claim 8 , wherein the MAC PDU corresponds to a first configured grant; and

wherein said receiving, by the MAC layer, the UL grant, and re-transmitting the MAC PDU based on the UL grant comprises:

receiving, by the MAC layer, a second configured grant; and

re-transmitting, by the MAC layer based on the second configured grant, the MAC PDU.

10. A network device, comprising:

a processor;

a transceiver connected to the processor; and

a memory configured to store instructions executable by the processor;

wherein the processor is configured to load and execute the executable instructions to implement the data transmission method according to claim 4 .

11. The network device according to claim 10 , wherein the one piece of data comprises a MAC Protocol Data Unit (PDU); and

wherein said receiving the one piece of data transmitted by the terminal device comprises:

transmitting an Uplink (UL) grant to the terminal device; and

receiving the MAC PDU transmitted, based on the UL grant, by the MAC layer.

12. The network device according to claim 11 , wherein the MAC PDU corresponds to a first configured grant;

wherein said transmitting the UL grant to the terminal device comprises:

transmitting a second configured grant to the terminal device; and

wherein said receiving the MAC PDU transmitted, based on the UL grant, by the MAC layer comprises:

receiving the MAC PDU re-transmitted, based on the second configured grant, by the MAC layer.

13. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, having executable instructions stored thereon, wherein the executable instructions are loaded and executed by a processor to implement the data transmission method according to claim 1 .

14. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, having executable instructions stored thereon, wherein the executable instructions are loaded and executed by a processor to implement the data transmission method according to claim 4 .
