Abstract

A wireless communication method and a terminal device are provided, capable of avoiding data transmission problems due to hidden nodes and half-duplex in sidelink transmission. The method includes: transmitting, by a first terminal when a specific condition is satisfied, a reference resource set to a second terminal, the reference resource set being used by the second terminal to select a sidelink resource. It can reduce the burden on the second terminal due to the complexity in resource selection by the second terminal when the second terminal receives reference resource sets transmitted from too many terminals. The first terminal only transmits the reference resource set under a specific condition, which is advantageous in that the first terminal only reports the determined reference resource set to the terminal for which the reference resource set has the highest reference value, so as to improve the reliability of subsequent data transmission.
