Abstract

Disclosed in embodiments of the present application are a method and device for scheduling transmission, which are used to solve the problem in which there are currently no solutions for transmission scheduling that supports various communication scenario changes. In the embodiments of the present application, a network side device sends a transmission instruction to a terminal device; and the terminal device determines a transmission scheduling mode according to the transmission instruction and performs transmission scheduling. Moreover, after determining that an adjustment condition is satisfied, the network side device determines a new transmission scheduling mode and notifies the terminal device, so that the terminal device performs transmission scheduling by means of the new transmission scheduling mode.

wherein the RVs in the transmission scheduling mode are determined according to the RV indication information, comprising:

determining, by the terminal device, RVs corresponding to an RV identification code contained in the RV indication information as the RVs in the transmission scheduling mode.

2. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

determining, by the terminal device, a TRP corresponding to the TCI state contained in the TRP indication information, and determining the TRP as a TRP used for transmission scheduling; or

determining, by the terminal device, a TRP corresponding to a TCI state according to the TCI identification code contained in the TRP indication information, and determining the TRP as a TRP used for transmission scheduling.

3. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

determining, by the terminal device, a quantity of RVs corresponding to the RV identification code contained in the RV indication information in the transmission instruction according to a preset mapping relationship between RV identification codes and RVs, and
