Abstract

When a quantity of radio resources available for a terminal device is less than a quantity of required radio resources, the terminal device sends a request to another terminal device, to request the another terminal device to release at least one radio resource currently used by the another terminal device or reselect a radio resource. The another terminal device that receives the request may autonomously release or request a network to release the at least one radio resource currently used by the another terminal device, or autonomously reselect or request a network to reselect the radio resource, and send a response to the terminal that sends the request. Nonconsecutive fragmented radio resources may be integrated into consecutive and relatively large radio resources, so that radio resource fragments are reduced, and the terminal device can send control information and data in a timely manner, thereby improving radio resource utilization.

Dependent claims

A wireless communication method, comprising:

listening, by a first terminal device, to radio resources to obtain one or more second available radio resource sets that are nonconsecutive in frequency domain, wherein radio resources comprised in each second available radio resource set are consecutive in frequency domain;
sending, by the first terminal device, a first request to a second terminal device to release a first radio resource currently utilized by the second terminal device;
determining, by the first terminal device, a first available radio resource set, wherein the first available radio resource set comprises at least a part of the first radio resource and at least one of the one or more second available radio resource sets, and radio resources comprised in the first available radio resource set are consecutive in frequency domain;
and
sending, by the first terminal device, information by using the first available radio resource set.

2 more elements

A wireless communication method, comprising:

receiving a first request from a first terminal device at a second terminal device, wherein the first request is used to request the second terminal device to release a first radio resource currently utilized by the second terminal device, wherein a first available radio resource set comprises at least a part of the first radio resource and at least one of one or more second available radio resource sets, wherein the one or more second available radio resource sets are nonconsecutive in frequency domain, and radio resources comprised in the first available radio resource set are consecutive in frequency domain;
listening, by the second terminal device, to radio resources to obtain at least one third available radio resource set, wherein radio resources comprised in each third available radio resource set are consecutive in frequency domain;
and
sending, by the second terminal device, information by using one of the at least one third available radio resource set;
and
releasing, by the second terminal device, the first radio resource based on the first request.

3 more elements

A wireless communications apparatus, comprising a processor and a transceiver coupled to the processor, wherein

the processor is configured to listen to radio resources via the transceiver to obtain one or more second available radio resource sets that are nonconsecutive in frequency domain, wherein radio resources comprised in each second available radio resource set are consecutive in frequency domain;
the transceiver is configured to send a first request to a second terminal device to release a first radio resource currently utilized by the second terminal device;
the processor is configured to determine a first available radio resource set, wherein the first available radio resource set comprises at least a part of the first radio resource and at least one of the one or more second available radio resource sets, and radio resources comprised in the first available radio resource set are consecutive in frequency domain;
and
the transceiver is further configured to send information by using the first available radio resource set.
