Abstract

A communication method and an apparatus are provided. The method includes: A network device determines, in a first time domain unit, whether data of N to-be-scheduled terminals in a second time domain unit in M cells of the network device is delay-sensitive data; and if the network device determines that data of K to-be-scheduled terminals of the N to-be-scheduled terminals is delay-sensitive data, the K to-be-scheduled terminals are separately located in P cells of the M cells, and a power required for sending the delay-sensitive data in each of the P cells is less than or equal to a preset power threshold corresponding to the cell, the network device sends the data of the K to-be-scheduled terminals in a second time domain unit of the P cells.
