Abstract

A data transmission method and a communications apparatus are described that reduce complexity and overhead of data reception performed by a base station. The method includes receiving information about a repetition quantity R1 corresponding to Tmax, where Tmax is a maximum transport block size allowed to be used to transmit data. The method further includes determining a cyclic parameter L based on R1, where the cyclic parameter L indicates that content carried in each of a plurality of time units to which a transport block used to transmit the data is mapped is repeated in L consecutive time units, and wherein a size of the transport block actually used to transmit the data is Ts, and Ts is less than a maximum transport block size (Tmax). The method further includes transmitting the data based on the cyclic parameter L.
