Abstract
A communication method for using an unlicensed frequency band is provided. The method includes: A first wireless device receives first indication information in a first time unit, where the first indication information is used to indicate a second wireless device to transmit data in a second time unit, or the first indication information is used to indicate a second wireless device not to transmit data in a second time unit, where the second time unit is a preset time unit used by the second wireless device to transmit data.
Claims16
A communication method, comprising:
- receiving, by a first wireless device, first indication information in a first time unit, wherein the first indication information indicates a second wireless device to transmit data in a second time unit, or the first indication information indicates a second wireless device not to transmit data in a second time unit, wherein the second time unit is a preset time unit used by the second wireless device to transmit data,
- wherein the first indication information indicates the second wireless device not to transmit data in the second time unit, and the method further comprises:
- receiving or detecting, by the first wireless device, second indication information in a fourth time unit, wherein the second indication information indicates whether the first wireless device is capable of transmitting data in the second time unit, wherein a time domain position of the fourth time unit is before the time domain position of the second time unit, and the time domain position of the fourth time unit is after the time domain position of the first time unit.
A communication method, comprising:
- obtaining, by a second wireless device, first indication information, wherein the first indication information indicates the second wireless device to transmit data in a second time unit, or the first indication information indicates the second wireless device not to transmit data in a second time unit, wherein the second time unit is a preset time unit used by the second wireless device to transmit data;
- and
- sending, by the second wireless device, the first indication information in a first time unit,
- wherein the first indication information indicates the second wireless device not to transmit data in the second time unit, and the method further comprises:
- sending, by the second wireless device, second indication information in a fourth time unit, wherein the second indication information indicates a wireless device that transmits data in the second time unit, wherein a time domain position of the fourth time unit is before a time domain position of the second time unit, and the time domain position of the fourth time unit is after a time domain position of the first time unit.
A communication method, comprising:
- obtaining, by a second wireless device, first indication information, wherein the first indication information indicates the second wireless device to transmit data in a second time unit, or the first indication information indicates the second wireless device not to transmit data in a second time unit, wherein the second time unit is a preset time unit used by the second wireless device to transmit data;
- and
- sending, by the second wireless device, the first indication information in a first time unit, wherein the first indication information indicates the second wireless device to transmit data in the second time unit, and the method further comprises:
- performing, by the second wireless device, channel detection and/or clear channel assessment (CCA) in a sixth time unit, wherein a time domain position of the sixth time unit is before a time domain position of the second time unit, and the time domain position of the sixth time unit is after a time domain position of a fourth time unit.
A communications apparatus, comprising a receiver, configured to:
- receive first indication information in a first time unit, wherein the first indication information is indicative of a second wireless device to transmit data in a second time unit, or the first indication information is indicative of a second wireless device not to transmit data in a second time unit, wherein the second time unit is a preset time unit used by the second wireless device to transmit data,
- wherein the first indication information indicates the second wireless device not to transmit data in the second time unit, and the communication apparatus further comprises at least one processor configured to:
- receive or detect second indication information in a fourth time unit, wherein the second indication information is indicative of whether the communications apparatus is capable of transmitting data in the second time unit, a time domain position of the fourth time unit is before the time domain position of the second time unit, and the time domain position of the fourth time unit is after the time domain position of the first time unit.
A communications apparatus, comprising at least one processor and a transmitter, wherein
- the at least one processor is configured to obtain first indication information, wherein the first indication information is indicative of the communications apparatus to transmit data in a second time unit, or the first indication information is indicative of the communications apparatus not to transmit data in a second time unit, wherein the second time unit is a preset time unit used by the communications apparatus to transmit data;
- and
- the transmitter is configured to send the first indication information in a first time unit,
- wherein first indication information indicates the communications apparatus not to transmit data in the second time unit, and the transmitter is further configured to:
- send second indication information in a fourth time unit, wherein the second indication information is indicative of a wireless device that transmits data in the second time unit, a time domain position of the fourth time unit is before a time domain position of the second time unit, and the time domain position of the fourth time unit is after a time domain position of the first time unit.
A communications apparatus, comprising at least one processor and a transmitter, wherein
- the at least one processor is configured to obtain first indication information, wherein the first indication information is indicative of the communications apparatus to transmit data in a second time unit, or the first indication information is indicative of the communications apparatus not to transmit data in a second time unit, wherein the second time unit is a preset time unit used by the communications apparatus to transmit data;
- and
- the transmitter is configured to send the first indication information in a first time unit, wherein the first indication information indicates the communications apparatus to transmit data in the second time unit, and the at least one processor is further configured to:
- perform channel detection and/or CCA in a sixth time unit, wherein a time domain position of the sixth time unit is before a time domain position of the second time unit, and the time domain position of the sixth time unit is after a time domain position of a fourth time unit.
