Abstract
This application provides a communication method and a communications device. The communication method includes: receiving, by a first device, N transport blocks TBs sent by a second device, where each TB includes at least one code block group CBG, and N is a positive integer; determining, by the first device, a hybrid automatic repeat request HARQ feedback bit of each CBG in the N TBs; determining, by the first device, a feedback bit stream of the N TBs based on the HARQ feedback bit of each CBG in the N TBs, where a quantity of bits of the feedback bit stream is equal to or less than a total quantity of CBGs in the N TBs; and sending, by the first device, the feedback bit stream to the second device. Compared with that in the prior art, the communication method provided in this application may improve flexibility of transmitting a feedback bit stream.
