A communication method, comprising: receiving, by user equipment, quantity information, sent by a transmission reception point, TRP, of control information to be sent to the user equipment, wherein the quantity information of the control information to be sent to the user equipment is comprised in a first transmission parameter set, wherein N pieces of control information are to be sent to the user equipment, and the control information is comprised in a second transmission parameter set, wherein N is an integer greater than or equal to 2, the first transmission parameter set further comprises content indication information of second transmission parameter sets, and the content indication information of second transmission parameter sets indicates whether N second transmission parameter sets to be sent to the user equipment are the same; determining, by the user equipment based on the quantity information, that the N pieces of control information need to be detected; and detecting, by the user equipment, the control information from N TRPs; wherein when the N second transmission parameter sets have same content, the method further comprises: combining, by the user equipment, the detected N second transmission parameter sets; when the N second transmission parameter sets have different content, the method further comprises: obtaining, by the user equipment, scheduling information of N data channels based on the N second transmission parameter sets detected from the N TRPs; and separately transmitting, by the user equipment, data on the N data channels. receiving, by user equipment, quantity information, sent by a transmission reception point, TRP, of control information to be sent to the user equipment, wherein the quantity information of the control information to be sent to the user equipment is comprised in a first transmission parameter set, wherein N pieces of control information are to be sent to the user equipment, and the control information is comprised in a second transmission parameter set, wherein N is an integer greater than or equal to 2, the first transmission parameter set further comprises content indication information of second transmission parameter sets, and the content indication information of second transmission parameter sets indicates whether N second transmission parameter sets to be sent to the user equipment are the same; determining, by the user equipment based on the quantity information, that the N pieces of control information need to be detected; and detecting, by the user equipment, the control information from N TRPs; wherein when the N second transmission parameter sets have same content, the method further comprises: combining, by the user equipment, the detected N second transmission parameter sets; when the N second transmission parameter sets have different content, the method further comprises: obtaining, by the user equipment, scheduling information of N data channels based on the N second transmission parameter sets detected from the N TRPs; and separately transmitting, by the user equipment, data on the N data channels. combining, by the user equipment, the detected N second transmission parameter sets; when the N second transmission parameter sets have different content, the method further comprises: obtaining, by the user equipment, scheduling information of N data channels based on the N second transmission parameter sets detected from the N TRPs; and separately transmitting, by the user equipment, data on the N data channels. obtaining, by the user equipment, scheduling information of N data channels based on the N second transmission parameter sets detected from the N TRPs; and separately transmitting, by the user equipment, data on the N data channels. <EOS>
