Abstract

A method for determining a HARQ identifier includes determining, by a network device, a HARQ identifier of a transport block (TB) based on a first time domain resource sequence number of a current TB, a number of HARQ processes, a time domain period of a non-dynamic resource, and a HARQ identifier offset. The method also includes receiving, by the network device, the TB from a terminal on the non-dynamic resource according to the HARQ ID.

Claims (41)

determining, by a network device, a HARQ identifier of a transport block (TB) based on a first time domain resource sequence number of a current TB, a number of HARQ processes, a time domain period of a non-dynamic resource, and a HARQ identifier offset; and

receiving, by the network device, the TB from a terminal on the non-dynamic resource according to the HARQ ID,

wherein the HARQ ID satisfies a formula, HARQ Process ID=[floor((t_temp-current_n)/T)] modulo B+Hoffset, and

wherein the HARQ Process ID is the HARQ ID of the TB, t represents a time domain resource sequence number of the TB, T represents a time domain resource period of the non-dynamic resource, (t_temp−current_n) is the first time domain resource sequence number, t_temp is a parameter obtained by converting t based on a specific time unit, current_n represents a number of transmission times of the TB, B represents the number of HARQ processes corresponding to the TB, floor represents rounding down and modulo represents modulo operation.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first time domain resource sequence number of the TB is determined based on a time domain resource sequence number of the TB and a number of transmission times of the TB.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises:

configuring the number of HARQ processes and time domain resource period of the non-dynamic resource.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the number of HARQ processes and time domain resource period of the non-dynamic resource are configured by RRC signaling.

5. A method for determining a HARQ identifier, the method comprising:

determining, by a terminal on a non-dynamic resource, a HARQ identifier of a transport block (TB) based on a first time domain resource sequence number of a current TB, a number of HARQ processes, a time domain period of a non-dynamic resource, and a HARQ identifier offset; and

sending, by the terminal, the TB according to the HARQ ID to a network device,

wherein the HARQ ID satisfies a formula, HARQ Process ID=[floor((t_temp-current_n)/T)] modulo B+Hoffset, and
