Abstract

A method for transmitting data in an Internet of Vehicles and a terminal device disclosed in the present disclosure allow the determination of a resource used for multiple transmissions of a sidelink and favor an increase in the reliability of data transmissions. The method includes a first terminal receiving first control information transmitted by a second terminal. The first control information is used for determining resource information used for multiple transmissions of a sidelink. The method also includes the first terminal determining, on the basis of the first control information, a resource used for multiple transmissions of the sidelink.

Claims (44)

1 . A method for data transmission, comprising:

receiving, by a first terminal, first control information sent by a second terminal, the first control information being used for determining resource information used for multiple sidelink (SL) transmissions; and

determining, by the first terminal according to the first control information, resource used for the multiple SL transmissions,

wherein the resource information used for multiple SL transmissions comprises time-domain resource information and/or frequency-domain resource information used for the multiple SL transmissions, and

wherein the first control information comprises third configuration information, the third configuration information being used for determining length information of a frequency-domain resource for each transmission of the multiple SL transmissions.

2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first control information comprises first index information, the first index information being used for indicating time-domain resource information corresponding to each transmission of the multiple SL transmissions.

3 . The method according to claim 2 , wherein the determining, by the first terminal according to the first control information, resource used for the multiple SL transmissions comprises:

determining, by the first terminal according to the first index information and a first correspondence, time-domain resource used for the multiple SL transmissions, the first correspondence being a correspondence between index information and time-domain resource information.

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

determining, by first terminal according to the first index information, a number of transmissions of the multiple SL transmissions, wherein time-domain resource corresponding to the first index information is a time unit used for the multiple SL transmissions.

5 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first control information comprises second configuration information, the second configuration information being used for determining a time offset of each transmission of the multiple SL transmissions relative to a certain boundary, and the determining, by the first terminal according to the first control information, resource used for the multiple SL transmissions comprises:

determining, by the first terminal according to the time offset of each transmission relative to the certain boundary with the certain boundary as a reference, time-domain resource used for each transmission of the multiple SL transmissions.

6 . The method according to claim 5 , wherein the certain boundary is a time unit determined according to a time unit carrying the first control information, or an initial time unit of a current radio frame, or an initial time unit of a current radio frame period.

7 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first control information comprises fourth configuration information, the fourth configuration information being used for determining a frequency-domain start position for each transmission of the multiple SL transmissions, and the determining, by the first terminal according to the first control information, resource used for the multiple SL transmissions comprises:

determining, by the first terminal, the length information of the frequency-domain resource for each transmission of the multiple SL transmissions according to the third configuration information, and the frequency-domain start position for each transmission of the multiple SL transmissions according to the fourth configuration information; and

determining, by the first terminal according to the frequency-domain start position and the length information of the frequency-domain resource for each transmission of the multiple SL transmissions, the frequency-domain resource for each transmission of the multiple SL transmissions.

8 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first control information is sidelink control information (SCI), and the SL comprises a physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH) and/or a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH).

9 . A terminal device, comprising:

determine, according to the time offset of each transmission relative to the certain boundary with the certain boundary as a reference, time-domain resource used for each transmission of the multiple SL transmissions.

14 . The terminal device according to claim 13 , wherein the certain boundary is a time unit determined according to a time unit carrying the first control information, or an initial time unit of a current radio frame, or an initial time unit of a current radio frame period.

15 . The terminal device according to claim 9 , wherein:

the first control information comprises fourth configuration information, the fourth configuration information being used for determining a frequency-domain start position for each transmission of the multiple SL transmissions, and

the memory storing instructions, which when executed by the processor, further cause the processor to:

determine the length information of the frequency-domain resource for each transmission of the multiple SL transmissions according to the third configuration information, and the frequency-domain start position for each transmission of the multiple SL transmissions according to the fourth configuration information; and

determine, according to the frequency-domain start position and the length information of the frequency-domain resource for each transmission of the multiple SL transmissions, the frequency-domain resource for each transmission of the multiple SL transmissions.

16 . A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a computer program that causes a terminal device to perform a method for data transmission, the method comprising:

receiving first control information sent by a second terminal, the first control information being used for determining resource information used for multiple sidelink (SL) transmissions; and

determining, according to the first control information, resource used for the multiple SL transmissions,

wherein the resource information used for multiple SL transmissions comprises time-domain resource information and/or frequency-domain resource information used for the multiple SL transmissions, and
