Abstract

This application provides a data sending method, a data sending apparatus, and a terminal device, to improve utilization of a configured grant resource. The method includes: A terminal device receives a configuration message from a network device. The configuration message is used to indicate a configured grant, and the configuration message includes information about a timer corresponding to the configured grant. The terminal device determines that the configured grant is used for a HARQ process, and starts the timer for the HARQ process. To-be-sent data in the HARQ process is data on a first logical channel. During running of the timer, when there is to-be-newly-transmitted data on a second logical channel, the timer stops running, or a running state of the timer is ignored. The data on the second logical channel is sent by using the configured grant.
