The method includes: receiving configuration information transmitted by a network device, where the configuration information is used to indicate at least one of a transmission resource and an operation attribute; when the transmission resource and/or the operation attribute are configured for a target object, performing a deactivation function operation on the target object. The target object is a cell, a carrier or a bandwidth part (BWP). ## Claims ### Claim 1 An activation control method comprising: receiving configuration information transmitted by a network device, wherein the configuration information is used to indicate at least one of a transmission resource and an operation attribute; when the transmission resource and/or the operation attribute are configured for a target object, performing a deactivation function operation on the target object; wherein the target object is a cell, a carrier or a bandwidth part (BWP). ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The method according to claim 1, wherein the transmission resource comprises a semi-static resource and/or a grant-free resource. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The method according to claim 1, wherein the operation attribute is an uplink skip attribute. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The method according to claim 3, wherein the transmission resource comprises a dynamic scheduling resource, the target object or the user equipment is configured as UL Skip. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The method according to claim 4, wherein the performing a deactivation function operation on the target object comprises: performing a deactivation function operation on all target objects configured as Skip; or, performing a deactivation function operation on all target objects of the user equipment. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The method according to claim 1, wherein the transmission resource comprises an uplink transmission resource or a downlink transmission resource. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The method according to claim 1, wherein the performing a deactivation function operation on the target object comprises any one of the following: configuring a value of a deactivation timer for the target object as infinity; shielding a deactivation operation triggered for the target object when the deactivation timer expires; the deactivation timer not applicable to the target object; configuring the target object to not allow deactivation; extending or restarting the deactivation timer according to newly transmitted data and/or retransmitted data in the transmission resource. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The method according to claim 7, wherein the configuring the target object to not allow deactivation comprises: configuring the user equipment to shield deactivation operation for the target object in a received deactivation command. ### Claim 9 (depends on 8) The method according to claim 8, wherein the deactivation command is transmitted through medium access control (MAC) control element (CE) or physical downlink control channel. ### Claim 10 An activation control method comprising: transmitting indication information to a user equipment (UE); wherein the indication information comprises at least one of a transmission resource and an operation attribute, the indication information is used to indicate the user equipment to perform a deactivation function operation on the target object when the transmission resource and/or the operation attribute are configured for the target object, and the target object is a cell, a carrier or a BWP. ### Claim 11 (depends on 10) The method according to claim 10, wherein the transmission resource comprises a semi-static resource and/or a grant-free resource. ### Claim 12 (depends on 10) The method according to claim 10, wherein the operation attribute is an uplink skip attribute. ### Claim 13 (depends on 12) The method according to claim 12, wherein the transmission resource comprises a dynamic scheduling resource, the target object or the user equipment is configured as UL Skip. ### Claim 14 (depends on 13) The method according to claim 13, wherein indicating the user equipment to perform a deactivation function operation on the target object comprises: indicating the user equipment to perform a deactivation function operation on all target objects configured as Skip; or indicating the user equipment to perform a deactivation function operation on all target objects. ### Claim 15 (depends on 10) The method according to claim 10, wherein the transmission resource comprises an uplink transmission resource or a downlink transmission resource. ### Claim 16 (depends on 10) The method according to claim 10, wherein indicating the user equipment to perform a deactivation function operation on the target object comprises any one of the following: indicating the user equipment to configure a value of a deactivation timer for the target object as infinity; indicating the user equipment to shield a deactivation operation triggered for the target object when the deactivation timer expires; the deactivation timer not applicable to the target object; indicating the user equipment to configure the target object to not allow deactivation; indicating the user equipment to extend or restart the deactivation timer according to newly transmitted data and/or retransmitted data in the transmission resource. ### Claim 17 (depends on 16) The method according to claim 16, wherein the indicating the user equipment to configure the target object to not allow deactivation comprises: indicating the user equipment to configure the user equipment to shield deactivation operation for the target object in a received deactivation command. ### Claim 18 (depends on 17) The method according to claim 17, wherein the deactivation command is transmitted through medium access control (MAC) control element (CE) or physical downlink control channel. ### Claim at position 19 19-36.
