Abstract
This application discloses a communication method and a related apparatus. In the method, a terminal triggers TA reporting and sends a TA report. The TA report includes position information or TA information of the terminal. If the TA report is successfully sent, the triggered TA reporting is canceled. In other words, before the TA report is successfully sent, the triggered TA reporting is not canceled. In this way, when there is another available uplink resource, the terminal may send the TA report again over the uplink resource. Therefore, a delay caused by re-triggering the TA reporting is reduced, and a success rate of reporting the TA report is increased.
Claims20
A communication method, wherein the method comprises:
- triggering timing advance (TA) reporting;
- sending a TA report, wherein the TA report comprises position information or TA information of a terminal;
- and
- canceling the triggered TA reporting if the TA report is successfully sent.
A communication apparatus, comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- a non-transitory computer-readable medium including computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the apparatus to carry out a method including:
- triggering timing advance (TA) reporting;
- sending a TA report, wherein the TA report comprises position information or TA information of a terminal;
- and
- canceling the triggered TA reporting if the TA report is successfully sent.
A communication apparatus, comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- a non-transitory computer-readable medium including computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the apparatus to carry out a method including:
- receiving a TA report, wherein the TA report comprises position information or TA information of a terminal;
- and
- sending first information, wherein the first information indicates that the TA report is successfully sent or indicates that a new transmission is scheduled using a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process, wherein the HARQ process is a HARQ process used to receive the TA report.
