Claim 0:
1. A communication method, comprising:
sending a scheduling request to a terminal device through a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), Wherein the scheduling request indicates the terminal device to send data to a network device based on a preset time interval;
in response to not receiving the data that is sent by the terminal device through a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), determining, based on measurement Imp configuration information of the terminal device, whether a time point at which the terminal device does not send the data is within a measurement gap window, wherein the measurement gap configuration information comprises a measurement period of a measurement gap, the measurement gap window, and a measurement start time; and
in response to determining that the time point at which the terminal device does not send the data is within the measurement gap window, sending, to the terminal device, a redundancy version number for a next hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) retransmission.
