METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONTENTION BASED RESOURCE CONFIGURATION

摘要

A CB resource configuration method is disclosed. The method includes: configuring, by a network device, one or more first objects to be capable of using a CB resource, where the one or more first objects belong to a proper subset of all first objects; and sending, by the network device, first CB resource information, where the first CB resource information is used for indicating that the one or more first objects are capable of using the CB resource. Embodiments of the present invention further provide a method for using a CB resource, a network device and a user equipment, and are applicable to relay scenarios or discontinuous reception scenarios. Through the method, the probability of the conflict during uplink transmission performed by using the CB resource can be reduced, the energy of the user equipment can be saved, and the implementation complexity of the user equipment can be lowered.
