Patent attributes
A data transmission method includes: receiving beam configuration information sent by a base station; according to the beam configuration information, obtaining a plurality of candidate beams from among a plurality of beams supported by the base station; performing data reception according to the plurality of candidate beams. A plurality of candidate beams can therefore be obtained from among a plurality of beams supported by a base station according to beam configuration information sent by the base station, and thus perform data reception according to the plurality of candidate beams, thereby implementing a multi-beam data reception solution, reducing the probability of packet loss during data reception, and increasing the reliability of data reception.
