9 . The method according to claim 8 , wherein a difference between the first probability and the second probability is greater than or equal to a first threshold, wherein the first threshold is specified in a protocol, or configured by a control node, or pre-configured.

10 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the measurement result comprises a reference measurement value; and before the determining, by UE, a candidate resource set according to resource information of first resources in a resource selection window, the method further comprises:

configuring, by the UE, a detection parameter of the UE of the first type, wherein the detection parameter comprises at least one of the following: a second preset rule of a target measurement threshold, a third preset rule of a reference measurement value, a measurement threshold offset value, or a measurement offset value.

11 . The method according to claim 10 , wherein in a case that any first resource is the reserved resource of the UE of the first type, the second preset rule comprises: obtaining the target measurement threshold based on a first original measurement threshold and a first measurement threshold offset value; or

in a case that the UE is the UE of the first type, the second preset rule comprises: setting the target measurement threshold based on a second original measurement threshold and a second measurement threshold offset value.

12 . The method according to claim 11 , wherein the first measurement threshold offset value is predefined, or specified in a protocol, or pre-configured, or configured by a first carrier, or indicated by first indication information; and/or the first measurement threshold offset value is related to a channel busy rate (CBR) of the UE, wherein

the first carrier comprises radio resource control (RRC) or a Media Access Control (MAC) control element (CE); and the first indication information comprises downlink control information (DCI) or sidelink control information (SCI).

13 .
