    Abstract: A transmission mode selection method and a device are provided. The method includes: determining first indication information, where the first indication information is used to indicate a changed transmission mode and/or indicate to change a transmission mode; and sending the first indication information to a terminal device. There may be a plurality of transmission modes for transmitting a data packet duplicated at a PDCP layer, in other words, there may be a plurality of modes for PDCP duplication. A transmission mode can be selected by using the first indication information. For example, when reliability of a mode for PDCP duplication is not high, another transmission mode can be selected by using the first indication information. In this way, a reliability requirement of a service is met as much as possible, thereby improving transmission quality of the service.

    Abstract: Embodiments of this application provide a communication method and a communication apparatus. If a preset condition is satisfied, a terminal device skips sending first channel state information CSI at first time, where the preset condition includes at least one of the following: The first time does not belong to active time of a first discontinuous reception DRX and that the first time does not belong to active time of a second DRX set; the first time does not belong to active time of a first DRX and that the first time belongs to active time of a third DRX set; neither a first timer nor a second timer set is run at the first time; or a first timer is not run but a third timer set is run at the first time.

    Abstract: Embodiments of this disclosure provide a paging method and an associated communication apparatus, medium, and chip. According to embodiments of this disclosure, an access network device sends information including an address of the access network device and an identifier of a terminal device to a core network device. The core network device determines an area for paging based on the address of the access network device, and sends a paging message including the identifier of the terminal device to the access network device. The access network device sends a radio access network paging message to the terminal device. In this manner, the area in which paging needs to be performed by the core network device can be reduced, thereby avoiding a waste of unnecessary paging resources.

    Abstract: Embodiments of this application provide a communication method and an apparatus, relate to the communication field, and in particular, are applicable to a broadcast system. The method includes: A terminal device receives a first downlink channel from an access network device, where the first downlink channel is scrambled by using a first identifier and is used to carry first data. The terminal device receives a second downlink channel from the access network device, where the second downlink channel is scrambled by using a second identifier and is used to retransmit the first data. The first identifier and the second identifier are identifiers configured by the access network device. This method can implement a feedback retransmission mechanism combining broadcast initial transmission and partial retransmission, to further improve spectral efficiency of a communication system.

    Abstract: A communication method and apparatus are provided. The method includes: A first node determines a sending time point of a second PDCP PDU based on first sending status information from a second node, where the first sending status information is associated with a first PDCP PDU, so that the first node can adjust the sending time point of the second PDCP PDU based on a sending situation of the first PDCP PDU, to avoid too many packet losses caused when a MAC PDU of the second PDCP PDU is not completely sent in a timely manner due to splitting and concatenation, so as to improve reliability of a synchronous data transmission mechanism in an NR system, and improve resource utilization.
